Steps:
- For the pancetta: Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray 2 baking sheets with vegetable oil cooking spray. Arrange the pancetta in a single layer on each baking sheet. Bake until golden and crispy, about 10 to 12 minutes.
- For the jam: In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, water, figs, and brandy (or apple juice) over medium heat. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved. Remove the pan from the heat and allow the syrup to cool slightly, about 10 minutes. Pour into a food processor and add the hazelnuts. Blend until smooth and thick.
- Preheat a panini press. Spread the bottom half of each roll with the jam. Place 4 slices of cooked pancetta on top and add 2 slices of cheese. Place the top half of the roll on top of the cheese. Grill in a panini maker until the bread is toasted and the cheese has melted, 4 to 5 minutes. Cool slightly and serve.
- Cook's Notes:
- -To toast the hazelnuts, arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake in a preheated 350 degrees F oven for 8 to 10 minutes until lightly toasted. Cool completely before using.
- - For easier slicing, freeze the cheese for 15 minutes

Tips:
- Choose the Right Bread: Select sturdy bread like ciabatta, focaccia, or a hearty whole-grain variety that can hold up to the fillings and won't get soggy.
- Layer Wisely: Start with a spread or sauce, then add cheese, protein, vegetables, and any other desired toppings. Layer ingredients in a way that ensures even distribution and melting.
- Don't Overfill: Avoid overloading the panini with too many ingredients, as it can make it difficult to close and may cause the fillings to spill out.
- Heat Evenly: Use a panini press or a well-heated skillet and griddle to ensure even cooking and golden-brown grill marks on both sides.
- Control the Heat: Cook the panini over medium heat to prevent burning the bread while allowing the fillings to warm and melt thoroughly.
- Press and Patience: Apply gentle but firm pressure while cooking to ensure the ingredients are pressed together and the cheese melts evenly. Be patient and allow the panini to cook for a few minutes on each side for optimal results.
