A deliciously creamy and sweet Goat Cheese Grilled Cheese with Honey blend, combining tangy herbed goat cheese, golden honey, and buttery toasted bread for a perfect balance of flavors and textures. This easy-to-make sandwich is ideal for a comforting snack or light meal.

Ingredients

Scale

Cheese & Spread

  • 4 oz Goat Cheese (try herbed goat cheese for an unexpected twist)
  • 2 tbsp Honey (substitute with agave syrup for a different flavor profile)

Bread & Butter

  • 2 slices Bread (opt for sturdy sourdough or whole grain for extra chewiness)
  • 2 tbsp Butter (consider using olive oil for a lighter option)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the skillet: Place a skillet on the stovetop and set it to medium heat, allowing it to warm up properly for even grilling.
  2. Assemble the sandwich: Spread a generous layer of goat cheese evenly over one slice of bread. Drizzle the honey on top of the goat cheese for a touch of sweetness, then place the second slice of bread over it to form your sandwich.
  3. Butter the sandwich exterior: Spread the butter evenly on the outside surfaces of the sandwich slices to ensure a golden and crispy finish when grilled.
  4. Grill first side: Place the sandwich in the heated skillet and cook for about 3-5 minutes, watching closely for a beautiful golden-brown crust to form.
  5. Flip and grill second side: Carefully flip the sandwich using a spatula and cook for another 3-5 minutes until the bread is crispy and the goat cheese has melted to a creamy consistency.
  6. Serve: Remove the grilled cheese from the skillet, slice it in half if desired, and serve immediately to enjoy the warm, gooey textures paired with sweet honey.

Notes

  • Use herbed goat cheese for an enhanced flavor with hints of herbs.
  • Sourdough or whole grain bread provides the best texture and flavor contrast.
  • Agave syrup works as a good alternative to honey for a different sweetness profile.
  • Butter is traditional, but olive oil offers a lighter option that still crisps the bread.
  • Cook on medium heat to avoid burning the bread while ensuring the cheese melts perfectly.
