Apple, Gouda, And Crispy Prosciutto Panini

Serves: 4
Prep:  5min
Cook: 20min
Total: 25min
              
Ingredients

• 2 ounces prosciutto
• 4 teaspoons honey dijon mustard
• 8 1/2" slices whole-grain baguette (about 6 ounces total)
• 2 medium McIntosh apples, halved, cored, and thinly sliced lengthwise
• 2 ounces light gouda cheese, thinly sliced

Directions
1. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and cook the prosciutto for 8 minutes, turning occasionally, until crispy. Remove from the pan and set aside on a paper towel.

2. Spread the mustard on 4 slices of the bread. Lay one-quarter of the apples (about 10 slices) atop the mustard on each bread slice. Top each with one-quarter of the prosciutto and cheese and 1 slice of the remaining bread. Lightly coat both sides of the sandwiches with cooking spray.

3. Heat the same skillet over medium heat and toast the sandwiches for 4 to 5 minutes per side, pressing down with a spatula often, until golden brown on both sides and the cheese is melted.
