Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine 2 cups of fresh blueberries, ¼ cup of white sugar, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon of lemon thyme. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the blueberries have softened and the compote thickens. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- Once the blueberry compote has thickened, set it aside to cool for about 5–10 minutes.
- Take four slices of thick bread and lay them flat on a clean surface. Generously spread the cooled blueberry compote on two of the slices, then layer with 2 ounces each of shredded white cheddar and mozzarella cheese. Place the remaining bread slices on top to form two complete sandwiches, ensuring the filling is evenly distributed.
- Preheat a large skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of butter, allowing it to melt and coat the pan. Carefully place the assembled sandwiches into the skillet, cooking for about 3–4 minutes on each side.
- Once both sides of the sandwiches are golden and the cheese is fully melted, remove them from the skillet. Let them cool for a minute, then slice each sandwich in half diagonally.
