Description
A sweet and savory twist on classic grilled cheese, featuring tangy balsamic blueberries, creamy goat cheese, and melty mozzarella on crispy sourdough.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 4 slices sourdough bread
- 4 ounces fresh goat cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter, softened
- Fresh basil leaves (optional)
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine blueberries, balsamic vinegar, and honey. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until blueberries burst and mixture thickens slightly (5–7 minutes). Remove from heat and let cool.

- Top with mozzarella cheese, then spoon the blueberry balsamic mixture over the cheese.
- Add fresh basil leaves if desired. Place remaining bread slices on top.
- Spread butter on the outside of each sandwich.
- Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Cook sandwiches for 3–4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cheese is melted.
- Serve warm.
