One of our favorite ways to feed people when they come over is paninis. We even bought a second panini maker so that we could make paninis faster when we have a crowed! My love of paninis is what came up with this amazing Brie Grilled Cheese. While it is made as a grilled cheese recipe, it would be perfect as a panini too. The bacon, turkey, and brie come together perfectly with an easy mayonnaise sauce to make the perfect sandwich.
How to Make Brie Grilled Cheese
What Bread to Use
This recipe calls for artisan bread. I love this recipe, but you can also buy them by the loaf at the grocery store. The loaves that come as a round with a harder crust and a soft inside, a lot like a sourdough, are my favorite.
Making Grilled Cheese with Brie
Brie might not be your first thought when you are craving a grilled cheese, but you really need to give this cheese a chance. You know it melts perfectly based on all the baked brie recipes out there. It also pairs amazing with so many other flavors, making it the ideal addition to a loaded grilled cheese sandwich. My absolutely favorite brie grilled cheese sandwich I ever made was this Jalapeño Peach Panini. If it’s name turns you of, just call it Captain Awesome, because that’s what it is.
Substitutions and Variations
Use deli turkey. If you are reading this and it isn’t after Thanksgiving, you probably don’t have turkey left overs. Just grab some deli turkey! It will also be delicious.Spice up the recipe. Some pickled jalapeños would be amazing on this.Throw in some cranberry sauce. If you are reading this and it is right after Thanksgiving, add some leftover cranberry sauce too!
