Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine fresh blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and a bundle of lemon thyme over medium-low heat. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 20 minutes until thickened. Stir occasionally and remove thyme once glossy. Allow to cool.
- Spread a generous layer of cooled blueberry compote on one side of each slice of thick bread. Top with a mixture of white cheddar and mozzarella cheese and close the sandwiches.
- Heat a cast iron skillet over medium heat and add unsalted butter. Once melted, add the sandwiches and cook for 2-3 minutes on one side until golden brown. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until cheese melts.
- Remove sandwiches, let cool briefly, sprinkle with flaky sea salt and fresh thyme if desired, cut in half, and serve warm.

Notes
Use freshly shredded cheese for the best melt and texture. Let compote cool completely to avoid sogginess in the sandwich.
