Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 slices Sourdough bread 1/2 inch thick
  • 6 oz Brie cheese sliced (approx 170g)
  • 1 large Fresh peach ripe but firm, sliced into wedges
  • 2 tbsp Unsalted butter softened (30g)
  • 1 tbsp Honey 15ml
  • 1 tbsp Fresh thyme leaves stripped from stems

Equipment

  • 1 Non-stick Skillet
  • 1 Spatula

Method
 

Caramelize the Peaches
  1. In a skillet over medium-high heat, melt a small knob of butter and sear peach slices for 2-3 minutes per side until charred edges appear.
  2. Add half the fresh thyme to the peaches in the final 30 seconds of searing to release aromatics.
Assemble and Grill
  1. Butter one side of sourdough slices. Layer brie, caramelized peaches, honey drizzle, and remaining thyme on the unbuttered side.
  2. Grill in the skillet over medium-low heat for 3-4 minutes per side until bread is golden-brown and brie is gooey and melted.

Notes

Use a heavy press or another pan on top for an even flatter, crispier crust.
Sub brie with camembert for a bolder flavor.
