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!

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my panini didn't turn out as good as I hoped. The brie didn't melt properly and the cranberries were too tart. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This panini was easy to make and turned out delicious! The brie was melted and gooey, the cranberries were tart and sweet, and the bacon was crispy. The bread was toasted to perfection. I will definitely be making this again.

I've made this recipe a few times now and it's always a hit! My family loves it. The brie and cranberries are a great combination and the bacon adds a nice smoky flavor. I highly recommend this recipe.

I'm not a big fan of brie, but I thought this panini was still pretty good. The cranberries and bacon added a lot of flavor. I would definitely make it again, but I might use a different type of cheese next time.

The panini was good, but I thought the bacon was a bit overcooked. I would have preferred it to be a little more crispy.

This panini was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with a different type of cheese, like cheddar or mozzarella.
