Grilled Cheese with Brie and Raspberry Chipotle Sauce

Grilled Cheese Sandwich with Brie made from Cinnamon Raisin Loaf on a cutting board

This gourmet grilled cheese sandwich will remind you of your favorite cheese plate. 

Ingredients
  • 1 La Brea Bakery Cinnamon Raisin Loaf
  • 1 tablespoon butter, softened
  • 3 ounces Brie cheese
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 teaspoon Spiceology Raspberry-Chipotle Spice Blend
  • ½ teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Preparation
  1. Cut bread into 4 slices about 1½ inches thick. 
  2. Butter one side of each slice and place butter-side down on a cutting board.  
  3. Add the Brie cheese and then spoon over Raspberry Chipotle sauce (recipe below). 
  4. Top with the remaining piece of bread, butter side out. 
  5. Place the sandwich in a non-stick pan and cook over medium-low heat. The key is to let the outside brown slowly so the cheese inside melts.  
  6. When the bottom is golden brown, press the sandwich down with a spatula and flip to brown the other side. When the second side is golden, and the cheese is soft, remove from heat and let rest for 2 to 3 minutes. Serve with extra sauce on the side.


How to Make Raspberry Chipotle Sauce:

  1. Put raspberries and water in a saucepan, mash the ingredients with a fork, and let it cook down until it is a jam-like consistency. 
  2. When finished, turn off the heat and add the Spiceology blend, lemon juice, and cinnamon.
  3. Set aside for later.
