Ingredients
  

For the Sandwich
  • 1 ball Fresh Burrata Let it reach room temperature for creaminess.
  • 2 slices Bread Use sourdough or ciabatta for best results.
  • 1 tablespoon Butter Spread on the outside of the bread.
  • 2 tablespoons Spinach Pesto Spread a thin layer to avoid sogginess.

Equipment

  • non-stick skillet

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by heating a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt.
  2. Place one slice of bread in the pan and allow it to soak up the melted butter.
  3. Spread a thin layer of spinach pesto over the bottom slice of bread.
  4. Gently break apart the burrata and layer it over the pesto evenly.
  5. Place the second slice of bread on top and cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes.
  6. Carefully flip the sandwich onto the other side and cook for another 3-4 minutes.
  7. Check for doneness; both sides should be golden brown and the cheese warm.
  8. Remove the sandwich, let it cool, then slice and serve immediately.
