Prosciutto, Pear and Gruyere Panini

• 1 Tablespoon Butter Or Margarine, Divided
• 2 slices Gruyere Cheese
• 4 slices Country White Or Wheat Bread
• 4 slices Prosciuto, Thinly Sliced
• 1 whole Pear, Thinly Sliced

1. Prepare a panini maker or grill pan by melting 1/2 tablespoon butter on medium/low heat.
2. To assemble sandwiches, layer gruyere on bread slices.
3. Top with prosciutto, followed by a layer of pear.
4. Top with another slice of bread and lightly brush top with 1/4 tablespoon of the remaining butter or margarine.
5. Place the sandwich butter side down on the panini press and brush the other side with the leftover 1/4 tablespoon butter.
6. Close the lid and cook according to directions.
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. Flip sandwiches halfway through (roughly 4 minutes) and grill on the other side.
9. Sandwiches are done when bread is crisp with golden-brown grill lines, and cheese is warm and melted (roughly 8-10 minutes).
