Ingredients
Scale
2 slices of whole grain bread
2 ounces of cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup fresh blueberries
1/2 teaspoon honey (optional)
2 tablespoons butter, softened
1/4 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
Instructions
Preheat a skillet over medium heat.
In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with honey (if using) until smooth.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly on one side of each slice of bread.
On one slice, layer the fresh blueberries and shredded cheddar cheese on top of the cream cheese.
Place the other slice of bread on top, cream cheese side down, to form a sandwich.
Spread 1 tablespoon of softened butter on the outside of the sandwich.
Carefully place the sandwich in the preheated skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown.
Flip the sandwich, add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the skillet, and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the other side is golden and the cheese is melted.
Remove from the skillet, let it cool for a minute, then slice in half and serve warm.
Notes
For a sweeter twist, try adding a sprinkle of cinnamon to the cream cheese mixture.
You can also substitute the blueberries with strawberries or raspberries for a different flavor profile.
