Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 4 oz Goat Cheese (try herbed goat cheese for an unexpected twist)
- 2 slices Bread (opt for sturdy sourdough or whole grain for extra chewiness)
- 2 tbsp Honey (substitute with agave syrup for a different flavor profile)
- 2 tbsp Butter (consider using olive oil for a lighter option)
Instructions
- Preheat Skillet: Preheat your skillet over medium heat to prepare for grilling the sandwich, ensuring even toasting without burning.
- Assemble Sandwich: Spread a generous layer of goat cheese evenly on one slice of bread, then drizzle honey on top for a sweet contrast. Place the second slice of bread on top to form the sandwich.
- Butter Bread Outside: Butter the outside of the sandwich generously on both sides to achieve a golden, crispy crust during grilling.
- Grill First Side: Place the sandwich in the hot skillet and grill for about 3-5 minutes until the bread turns golden brown and the cheese starts melting.
- Flip and Grill Second Side: Gently flip the sandwich and grill the other side for another 3-5 minutes, ensuring it’s crispy and the goat cheese is fully melted.
- Serve: Remove the sandwich from the heat, slice in half for easy handling, and serve immediately while warm and gooey.
Notes
- Use herbed goat cheese to add extra flavor layers.
- Sourdough or whole grain bread holds up best to grilling without getting soggy.
- Try substituting honey with agave syrup for a vegan-friendly option.
- Butter can be replaced with olive oil for a lighter, healthier fat option.
- Serve with a side salad or fresh fruit for a balanced meal.
