Ingredients
Scale
- 8 slices sourdough or crusty bread
- 1/4 cup butter, room temperature
- 1/4 cup cranberry sauce
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 4 ounces brie cheese, thinly sliced
Instructions
- Generously butter one side of each slice of bread.
- Flip half the slices over and spread their opposite sides with cranberry sauce.
- Place brie and mozzarella cheese on top of the cranberry sauce, add a pinch of flaky salt if desired, then top each sandwich with a remaining bread slice (butter side up).
- Cook sandwiches in a large skillet over medium heat until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- Remove from skillet, cut in half, and serve immediately.
Notes
For best results, use cold brie as it’s easier to slice thinly. This sandwich pairs well with creamy soups or a quick side salad.
