Ingredients

  • 2tablespoons fig jam
  • 4slices country white, sliced sandwich bread
  • 2tablespoons pistachios, chopped (optional)
  • 4ounces goat cheese, crumbled
  • 2ounces prosciutto
  • melted butter or olive oil for brushing

Preparation

  1. Spread 1 tablespoon of fig jam on two slices
  2. of bread and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of
  3. chopped pistachios (if using); reserve. Evenly
  4. divide the crumbled goat cheese over the top of
  5. the remaining two bread slices, leaving at least a
  6. ½-inch border around the edges. Layer each with
  7. half the prosciutto. Top with the reserved bread
  8. slices, jam side down.
  9. Preheat the Cuisinart® Sandwich Maker. Lightly
  10. brush plates with melted butter or oil. Carefully
  11. place the assembled sandwiches onto the
  12. preheated Sandwich Maker. Use firm pressure
  13. to close lid; lock and cook. Green indicator light
  14. will go off and red light will come on (this may
  15. not happen immediately). When green indicator
  16. light reappears, sandwich is cooked. Add 15 to
  17. 30 seconds additional cooking time if a toastier
  18. sandwich is preferred. Remove with a heatproof
  19. silicone spatula. Allow sandwich to cool slightly
  20. for 2 to 3 minutes before serving, as filling will be
  21. very hot.
