This Honey Banana Grilled Cheese is the ultimate sweet and savory treat! Crispy, buttery bread surrounds a melty blend of gooey cheese, caramelized bananas, and a drizzle of honey. Perfect for breakfast, a quick lunch, or even dessert, this sandwich is easy to make and absolutely delicious.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 slices bread (brioche, sourdough, or your favorite)
  • 1 tbsp butter, softened
  • 1 ripe banana, sliced
  • 1 tbsp honey, plus more for drizzling
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or cream cheese)

Instructions

 

  1. Caramelize the Bananas:
    Heat a small pan over medium heat. Add sliced bananas, honey, and cinnamon. Cook for 2 minutes per side, until the bananas soften and caramelize. Remove from heat.

  2. Assemble the Sandwich:
    Butter one side of each bread slice. On the unbuttered side, layer cheese and caramelized bananas. Drizzle with extra honey if desired. Top with the second slice, buttered side facing out.

  3. Grill Until Golden:
    Heat a pan over medium-low heat. Cook the sandwich for 2-3 minutes per side, pressing lightly with a spatula, until golden brown and the cheese is melted.

  4. Serve and Enjoy:
    Let the sandwich cool for a minute before slicing. Drizzle with extra honey and serve warm!

Notes

  • Bread Choice: Brioche or sourdough hold up best to the melty filling.
  • Low Heat is Key: Cooking over lower heat prevents burning and allows the cheese to melt perfectly.
  • Cheese Options: Cream cheese adds a creamy texture, while cheddar gives a slightly savory contrast.
