We don’t like to admit it, but summer will, in about a month and a half, come to an end. The days will get shorter, the nights colder, and the leaves will begin to turn from green to reds and yellows. But don’t be sad — for one thing, August is far from over, so you still have plenty of time for fun in the sun. For another, fall is awesome! And this savory, spicy panini is a great way to get into the autumnal swing. Even in August.
Meet the Pants-ini.
This recipe comes to us via Tarika Narain over at Spoon University. She named this sandwich the “Pants-ini” in honor of the cooling weather — because the days of shorts become the days of pants.
Ingredients:
- 2 slices cranberry walnut bread
- 4 tablespoons maple almond butter
- 4 tablespoons maple chèvre
- ½ an apple
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
Spread the maple almond butter evenly on both slices of bread.
Slice your apples and your goat cheese.
Place the apple and cheese slices on one of the pieces of bread.
Place the other bread slice on top and cook for about seven minutes in a greased panini press.
If you don’t have a panini press, you can cook it in a frying pan like a grilled cheese, pressing with a metal spatula.
Now enjoy your autumnal goodness.
Okay, you don’t have to wait until fall for this. It’s a great sandwich any time of year, especially when you want something to remind you of the joys of autumn.
