Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 slices Raisin bread
- 120 grams Goat cheese
- 4 tablespoons Fig spread
- 2 cups Arugula
- 2 tablespoons Butter (optional)
Instructions
Spread 1 tablespoon of fig spread evenly over one side of 4 slices of raisin bread.
Divide the goat cheese into four portions and spread it evenly over the fig spread on each slice of bread.
Top the goat cheese with a handful of fresh arugula on each slice.
Place the remaining 4 slices of raisin bread on top to form sandwiches.
If desired, lightly butter the outer sides of each sandwich for toasting.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Toast each sandwich for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden and slightly crisp.
Remove the sandwiches from the pan, let them cool for a minute, and then slice diagonally if preferred.
Serve warm and enjoy!
