Preparation

Step 1

To make the jam, pulse the blueberries in a food processor until blended. Transfer the blueberries to a stockpot and stir in sugar, lemon juice, vinegar, lemon peel and cinnamon. Bring the mixture to a full boil, stirring constantly. Boil for at least 1 minute.

Reduce the heat and pour mixture into Mason jars and cover with a lid.

Chill for at least an hour.

Preheat a Panini maker or griddler.

To assemble the sandwich, place 2 slices of Brie cheese onto 1 slice of bread. Cover cheese with 2 tablespoons of jam and then layer with another slice or two of cheese. Top with the second slice of bread.

Place sandwich in the griddler or panini maker and press down until bread is golden brown and cheese is fully melted.
