Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 8 slices of sourdough bread
  • 8 ounces brie cheese, thinly sliced
  • 8 slices crispy bacon
  • 1 large pear, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons butter, softened

Instructions

  1. Prepare the ingredients (5 minutes):
    • Cook the bacon until crispy, then drain on paper towels.
    • Thinly slice the brie cheese and the pear.
  2. Assemble the sandwiches (5 minutes):
    • Lay out the sourdough bread slices. On four slices, arrange a layer of brie cheese.
    • Top the brie with 2 slices of crispy bacon on each sandwich.
    • Add a layer of thinly sliced pear over the bacon.
    • Top with another layer of brie cheese.
    • Place the remaining slices of sourdough bread on top to complete the sandwiches.
  3. Butter the bread (2 minutes):
    • Spread a thin layer of softened butter on the outside of each sandwich (both top and bottom slices).
  4. Toast the sandwiches (10 minutes):
    • Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the brie is melty, about 3-5 minutes per side.
    • Press down gently with a spatula to ensure even toasting and melting.
  5. Serve:
    • Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them cool slightly. Slice each sandwich in half and serve immediately.

Notes

For an extra touch of flavor, you can add a drizzle of honey or a sprinkle of arugula inside the sandwich before toasting.
