Print Recipe

The Honey Banana Grilled Cheese Sandwich is a unique and comforting twist on the classic grilled cheese. It perfectly balances sweet and savory flavors with melty cheese, ripe bananas, golden toasted bread, and a drizzle of floral honey. Easy to prepare and endlessly customizable, this sandwich is ideal for breakfast, lunch, or a sweet snack.

Ingredients

Scale

Bread

  • 2 slices of sturdy bread (such as sourdough or whole wheat)

Cheese

  • 2–3 slices of mild cheese (mozzarella or Monterey Jack recommended)

Fruit and Sweetener

  • 1 ripe but firm banana, sliced into rounds
  • 1 tablespoon honey, for drizzling

Butter

  • Butter, for spreading on bread (about 1 tablespoon)

Instructions

  1. Prep Your Ingredients: Slice the banana into even rounds and cut your cheese if needed. Butter one side of each bread slice evenly to ensure a golden crust when grilled.
  2. Assemble the Sandwich: Layer the cheese and banana slices on the unbuttered side of one bread slice. Drizzle honey over the banana slices before topping with the second slice of bread, buttered side facing out.
  3. Grill to Perfection: Heat a skillet over medium-low heat and place the sandwich inside. Grill for about 3-4 minutes per side or until the bread is crisp and golden and the cheese has melted thoroughly.
  4. Serve Warm: Once grilled, let the sandwich rest for a minute to set before slicing to keep the gooey cheese contained and enhance each bite.

Notes

  • Choose ripe but firm bananas to avoid mushiness and excessive sweetness.
  • Cook on medium-low heat to melt cheese without burning the bread.
  • Use fresh, natural honey for the best flavor balance.
  • Butter both sides of the bread for an evenly crispy exterior.
  • Press gently with a spatula while grilling to ensure even melting and toasting.
