Prosciutto, Pear and Gruyere Panini

1. 1

   Prepare a panini maker or grill pan by melting 1/2 tablespoon butter on medium/low heat.

2. 2

   To assemble sandwiches, layer gruyere on bread slices.

3. 3

   Top with prosciutto, followed by a layer of pear.

4. 4

   Top with another slice of bread and lightly brush top with 1/4 tablespoon of the remaining butter or margarine.

5. 5

   Place the sandwich butter side down on the panini press and brush the other side with the leftover 1/4 tablespoon butter.

6. 6

   Close the lid and cook according to directions.

7. 7

   If you do not have a panini press, you can use a grill pan and simply press firmly with a spatula (ours was already packed up so this is what I did and it turned out great).

8. 8

   Flip sandwiches halfway through (roughly 4 minutes) and grill on the other side.

9. 9

   Sandwiches are done when bread is crisp with golden-brown grill lines, and cheese is warm and melted (roughly 8-10 minutes).
