Honey Peach White Cheddar Sandwich (Ready-to-Print Version)

Juicy peaches, sharp cheddar, and sweet honey unite in this warm, toasty sandwich with crispy golden bread.

# What You’ll Need:

→ Main

01 - 2 slices sourdough bread
02 - 1 medium fresh peach, peeled and sliced into 1/4-inch thick pieces
03 - 2 ounces white cheddar cheese, sliced
04 - 2 tablespoons whole milk ricotta cheese
05 - 1 tablespoon honey
06 - 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened

→ Optional Additions

07 - 2 slices cooked bacon
08 - 1 tablespoon fresh basil leaves, torn
09 - 2 teaspoons balsamic glaze

# Step-by-Step Guide:

01 - Peel and slice the peach into even 1/4-inch thick pieces. Place the slices on a paper towel to absorb excess moisture.
02 - Spread 1 tablespoon of ricotta cheese over one side of each slice of sourdough bread. Make sure the layer is thick enough to cushion the peaches without overflowing.
03 - Arrange the peach slices evenly on top of one piece of ricotta-spread bread. Drizzle honey in a slow, even stream across the peaches. Lay the white cheddar slices over the peaches, covering them edge to edge.
04 - Place the second piece of bread on top, ricotta side down, pressing gently. Spread half the butter on the outer surface of the top piece, ensuring even coverage.
05 - Warm a skillet or panini press over medium-low heat. Place the sandwich in the pan, buttered side down. Spread the remaining butter on the unbuttered top slice.
06 - Cook for 4 to 5 minutes per side, loosely covered, until the bread is golden and crisp and the cheddar is melted. Adjust heat as needed to prevent over-browning.
07 - If desired, carefully open the sandwich and add optional extras such as crispy bacon, basil, or a drizzle of balsamic glaze. Close, press gently, cut, and serve immediately while warm and gooey.

# Handy Tips:

01 - For best texture, slice peaches thinly and use slow, even heat on the skillet to ensure a crisp crust and fully melted cheese.
02 - Vegetarian adaptation: omit bacon.
03 - Sandwich is best enjoyed warm, but wrapped leftovers can be gently reheated in a skillet to revive crispness.
