2qt saucepan
12” cast iron skillet
Jam
- 1 pint fresh blueberries
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 unit lemon juiced
- 1 small bunch lemon thyme sprigs tied in kitchen twine
Sandwich
- 8 slices sourdough bread ¼ inch thick
- 4 oz white cheddar cheese shredded

Making the Jam
Combine the blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and lemon thyme in a 2qt saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and let the mixture simmer for about 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for another 10 minutes, or until thickened, stirring often. Remove the lemon thyme. Let cool for 10 minutes.
Assembling the Sandwiches
Cooking the Sandwiches
Heat a 12” cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of butter. Let it melt. Place two of the sandwiches into the skillet. Cover the skillet with a lid. Cook for 2-3 minutes until golden. Flip the sandwiches and continue to cook for 2-3 more minutes until the bread is golden and the cheese has melted (lower the heat as needed during the cooking process so the bread doesn’t burn).
Transfer the sandwiches to a cutting board. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and repeat with the remaining sandwiches.
