Servings 2 Paninis

Ingredients
  

  • 2 ciabatta rolls, split in half
  • 1 tbsp salted butter
  • 2 oz. Fontina cheese, thinly sliced
  • 2 oz. Swiss cheese, thinly sliced
  • 4 oz. sliced smoked turkey
  • 1 tbsp dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp apple butter

Instructions
 

  • Spread butter on the outsides of each split roll.
  • On the non-buttered side of the bottom of each roll, spread ½ tablespoon of dijon mustard, followed by half of the sliced Swiss. On the cheese, layer half of the sliced turkey, then top with half of the sliced Fontina. Spread ½ tablespoon of apple butter on the non-buttered side of the top of the roll. Top the panini, apple butter side down.
    Repeat for the second panini.
  • In a dry pan over medium heat, grill the sandwiches, about 3 minutes per side or until the cheese is melted and oozing over the edges. Weigh the sandwiches down as they cook with a cast-iron panini press. If you don't have a press, place another pan on the sandwiches and weigh down with something sturdy and heavy, like soup cans.
  • Remove the golden brown paninis from the heat and slice in half before digging in. Serve warm.
