Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by evenly spreading a generous layer of mascarpone cheese over one side of each slice of your hearty, buttery bread.
  2. Drizzle honey over the mascarpone on one slice, allowing its sweetness to soak into the cheese. Layer fresh banana slices over the honey.
  3. Place the second slice of bread on top, cheese side down, creating a delicious sandwich.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat for about 2 minutes. Optionally, add a small pat of butter.
  5. Carefully place the assembled sandwich in the heated skillet. Grill for about 4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown.
  6. Flip the sandwich gently to grill the other side for another 3-4 minutes until it’s golden and the cheese is melted.
  7. Carefully remove from the skillet and let it cool for a minute before cutting in half. Serve warm.
