    Title: Gruyere, Apple, and Fig Jam Panini
    Categories: Five, Breads, Fruits, Cheese
    Yield: 2 Sandwiches

    2 tb Butter; room temp
    4 sl Rustic whole-grain bread;
    - from a dense bakery loaf
    2 tb Fig jam
    4 oz Gruyere cheese; thin sliced
    1/2 Granny Smith apple; cored,
    - thin sliced

    Heat the panini press to medium-high heat. (Or if not
    using a panini press, preheat a cast iron frying pan on
    medium high heat.)

    For each sandwich, spread butter on two slices of bread.
    Turn the slices over and spread a layer of fig jam on the
    other side of each slice. To one slice add a layer of
    sliced cheese, several apple slices, and a layer of more
    cheese. Top the sandwich with the other slice of bread,
    buttered side up.

    Place up to two panini at a time in the preheated panini
    maker, and close the lid closed. Grill until the cheese is
    melted and the bread is toasted, about 4 to 5 minutes. (Or
    if making a grilled cheese sandwich instead of a panini,
    place in heated cast iron pan, cook until one side is
    browned, use a metal spatula, carefully flip the sandwich
    over and toast on the other side until the cheese is
    melted. You may need to lower the heat on the pan to allow
    enough time for the cheese to melt without burning the
    bread.)

    Yield: Makes 2 sandwiches.
