Here are some unique panini recipes you can make using your Cuisinart Griddler:

1. Tomato, Prosciutto, and Mozzarella Panini: Combine sliced tomatoes, prosciutto, and fresh mozzarella on Italian bread. Brush the outside with olive oil and grill on medium heat until the cheese melts and the bread is crispy.

2. Pizza Panini: Spread marinara sauce on crusty Italian bread, then layer with sliced mozzarella or provolone cheese. Add thinly sliced pepperoni and vegetables like mushrooms or peppers if desired. Grill on high heat for about 4-4.5 minutes.

3. Grilled Fresh Mozzarella, Tomato & Basil Panini: Layer fresh mozzarella, sliced tomatoes, and basil leaves between slices of bread brushed with olive oil. Grill at 375°F until the cheese is melted and the bread is crispy.

4. Italian Panini: Create a sandwich with Italian meats, cheeses, and vegetables of your choice. Brush the outside with olive oil and grill until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown.

5. Dessert Panini: For a sweet twist, try spreading Nutella on brioche bread and add sliced bananas or strawberries. Grill until the bread is crispy and the filling is warm.

When making these paninis, remember to preheat your Griddler and brush the outside of the bread with olive oil for the best results. The Griddler's adjustable hinge allows you to accommodate different sandwich thicknesses. After grilling, let the panini rest for a few minutes before cutting and serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
