⏳Preparation Time:

🍲Cooking Tips:
1. Use Quality Brie
The melt-and-flavor factor of creamy, high-quality brie will be best. If you use a more mature/stronger cheese, richer flavors will result.
2. Toast the Waffles First
Lightly toasting the waffles can give structure before grilling and prevent sogginess due to the melted cheese.
3. Don’t Overfill
With brie and jam, less is better. Keep it light on the filling; overstuffing can make the grilling process difficult.
4. Lightly Press While Grilling
When grilling, applying light pressure helps everything meld together. Too much pressure can squeeze out the filling.
5. Add a Pinch of Salt
Just a little bit of salt brightens up all the flavors. It lifts the sweetness from the raspberry and the creaminess from the brie.
6. Try Fresh Raspberries
Fresh raspberries provide another pop of color and texture to the dish. They offer brightness and a juicy bite.
7. Use a Nonstick Surface
A nonstick grill pan or waffle iron prevents ripping of the exterior, thus making the outside crisp and golden.
EQUIPMENT:
Waffle Iron or Panini Press
Toaster or Toaster Oven
Spatula
Sharp Knife
Cutting Board
Measuring Spoons
Serving Plate
🌿INGREDIENTS:
4 frozen or freshly made waffles
4 oz brie cheese, sliced
2–3 tbsp raspberry preserves or jam
1 tbsp butter (for grilling)
Fresh raspberries (optional, for garnish)
Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Fresh mint (optional, for garnish)
INGREDIENT NOTES :
Waffles
Frozen waffles are all about convenience, but homemade waffles just add the extra touch. Choose a waffle strong enough to hold the filling.
Brie Cheese
A creamy triple-brie is the most meltingly delicious choice. If you’d prefer a gooier texture, feel free to remove the rind, but it’s completely edible.
Raspberry Preserves
High-end jam or preserves with whole fruit yield more flavor. Other options would be to slice in fresh raspberries for texture.
Butter
Butter sharpens the crispness of the waffles, adding a richness; it can be substituted by a gentle brush of oil or cooking spray for lighter consumption.
Fresh Raspberries
They are optional but add a juicy pop with a fresh and tart contrast to the melted brie.
Powdered Sugar
Just a touch gives a lovely finish and just enough sweetness-in particular, if you are serving it as a dessert.
Fresh Mint
Ideal for garnishing. It gives a fresh scent with a touch of color to your plate.
🍳INSTRUCTION :
1. Preheat your grill or panini press.
If you do not have a press, a skillet at medium heat will suffice.
2. Toast the waffles lightly.
This makes them more robust while being grilled with the filling.
3. Build the waffles.
On one side, spread raspberry preserves on the waffle; next, layer it with slices of brie. Place
a second waffle on top, making it a sandwich.
4. Butter the outsides.
Lightly butter the outside of each waffle sandwich for a golden, crisp finish.
5. Grilling until golden and melty.
Place the sandwich on the grill or in a skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, until the brie has melted and the waffles are crisp.
6. Slice and serve.
Cut the grilled waffle in half or quarters. Dust with powdered sugar, fresh raspberries, or mint if desired.
