"Elvis Panini"

Ingredients

  • 4 SLICES SOURDOUGH OR FRENCH BREAD
  • 2 TABLESPOONS UNSALTED BUTTER, ROOM TEMPERATURE
  • PEANUT BUTTER, TO TASTE
  • 4 SLICES THICK-CUT BACON, COOKED
  • 1 RIPE BANANA, SLICED

Preparation

Step 1

Place the bread on a baking sheet, and brush each slice with butter.

Flip the slices over, and spread them with peanut butter.

Arrange the bacon on half the bread slices.

Divide the bananas evenly on top of the bacon, and cover with the remaining bread slices.

To Use a Panini Press: Preheat the panini press to medium-high heat, and grill the sandwiches until the bread is toasted, about 3 minutes.
To Use a Skillet: Heat a large cast-iron or non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the sandwiches in the pan, and weigh them down with another pan or a plate with 2 cans of soup on top. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, carefully flip the sandwiches, re-weight them, and cook for another 2 minutes.
