Brie, Pear, and Fig Spread Panini

I just had the most delicious dinner.

Gather ingredients:
1 wedge of brie cheese
1 pear
1 loaf of panini bread (got a pack of 4 of them from Whole Foods)
2 Tbsp of fig spread
2 pats of butter (Pat is my by far my favorite food measurement. How can you not smile when one is asked for a 'pat' of butter?)
Sprinkle of ground cinnamon

Cut bread in half. Spread fig spread on both sides of bread. Slice pear and cover one half of bread with slices. Cut brie into thin strips and lay on top of pear. Place other slice of bread on top and spread butter on top. Drop other pat of butter into a hot pan. Place sandwich on pan, non-buttered side down. Take a heavy pan covered with aluminum foil and place on top to achieve grilling of sandwich. After about 2-3 min. check for light brown coloring and flip replacing heavy pan on top. Remove when lightly browned and sprinkle cinnamon. Cut diagonally and enjoy!
