Ingredients
- 1 fresh peach (cut in half and sliced thin, (6 oz. peach) $0.65)
- ¼ cup fresh basil ($0.89)
- 6 oz. mozzarella ball ($2.74)
- 4 slices sourdough bread ($0.71*)
- 2 Tbsp salted butter (room temperature, $0.24)
- 1 Tbsp honey ($0.15)
- ¼ tsp chili flakes ($0.03)
- ⅛ tsp sea salt ($0.01)
Instructions
- Wash, halve, and slice peaches thinly, tear fresh basil into small pieces, and tear fresh mozzarella.
- Butter all sides of the sourdough bread and set aside.
- Add chili flakes and sea salt to the honey and give it a quick stir with a spoon.
- Assemble grilled cheese: spread hot honey on one side of the bread and layer the other side with mozzarella, sliced peaches, and torn basil. I like to put a little bit of cheese on top so it melts on both sides and helps the sandwich stay together.
- Put the sandwich together and transfer to a hot frying pan on medium-low heat until the cheese has melted in the middle and the sandwich is perfectly golden brown on both sides.
Equipment
- Frying Pan
Notes
- *You can use any sturdy bread to make these grilled cheese peach sandwiches. Sourdough is my go-to, but any hearty bread, like whole grain or ciabatta, will work.
