Notes

• If calories aren’t an issue, you can drizzle the outside of the sandwich with olive oil on both sides, or spread with butter instead of using the spray oil
• You can also drizzle some olive oil on the inside of the sandwich, but I find it’s not necessary
• If using the toaster oven, it’s fine to take the sandwich out halfway through and press it down a bit.
• Pane Turano is my bread of choice for paninis, but any nice sourdough bread should work fine. Other breads like ciabatta or foccacia will work, too, but the calorie count will be different.
