Brie, Cranberry and Bacon Panini image

This is based on a sandwich I often get at a local restaurant. It is absolutely delicious as a panini! In light of a review, I have adjusted the amount of cranberry sauce required from 6 tablespoons to 5. Please feel free to adjust this to taste.

Time 15m

Yield 2 sandwiches, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 slices bread (I use 2 panini rolls but any bread will do)
4 slices brie cheese, 2 for each sandwich
5 tablespoons cranberry sauce
4 slices streaky bacon, cooked
butter, if using regular bread

Steps:

  • If using panini rolls, cut each roll in half. If using regular bread, spread the outside of each slice with butter.
  • Spread 2 1/2 tablespoons of cranberry sauce each on 2 slices of bread.
  • Layer the brie over the cranberry sauce.
  • Top with 2 slices of bacon and the top layer of bread, remembering to keep the buttered side facing outwards.
  • I use a George Foreman grill to cook the panini- press the lid down to heat the sandwich right through and cook for a few minutes until the cheese has melted.
  • Alternatively, cook in a skillet, pressing the sandwich firmly with a spatula while cooking.
  • Serve hot!
