Raspberry, Basil, and Brie Grilled Cheese has buttery brioche bread with creamy brie cheese with fresh raspberries and basil and a drizzle of honey.
Is there anything more comforting than a grilled cheese? I don’t know if it’s because it reminds me of childhood or just because it’s bread covered with butter and stuffed with melty cheese. Probably a little of both.
This Raspberry, Basil, and Brie Grilled Cheese is full of different textures and flavors and tastes like summer to me.
How To Make Raspberry Basil Brie Grilled Cheese
- Place 2 slices of bread on a cutting board or other work surface
- Layer with half the brie
- Top with basil and raspberries
- Lay the remaining brie over top
- Drizzle with honey and place other slice of bread on top
- Spread the exteriors of the brioche bread with butter
- Grill in a skillet over medium heat until the brioche bread is golden brown and the brie is melted
- Let cool for about a minute before slicing and serving
This Raspberry, Basil, and Brie Grilled Cheese turned out so perfect on the brioche. The sweetness of the fresh raspberries and honey works so well with the earthy brie. And with each bite you get the crispy outside of the brioche bread and the soft fluffy inside. So good.
You can play around with different berries if raspberries aren’t your thing. I think blackberries would be really delicious.
