Tomato-Basil Egg Panini with Mozzarella

Tomato-Basil Egg Panini with Mozzarella

By Krista McCabe

Total: 25 minutes
BreakfastItalianSandwichesVegetarian

Ingredients

  • 3 pieces whole wheat rolls or ciabatta halves
  • 3 large eggs
  • 3 ounces fresh mozzarella
  • 1 sliced large tomato
  • 12 leaves fresh basil leaves
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

1

Preheat a panini press or grill pan over medium heat.

2

Slice the whole wheat rolls or ciabatta halves open if they are not already. Drizzle a bit of olive oil on the insides of the rolls to add moisture and flavor.

3

Crack the eggs into a bowl, add a pinch of salt and black pepper, and whisk until combined.

4

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat, add a small amount (1/2 tablespoon) of olive oil, and scramble the eggs until just set. Remove from heat.

5

On the bottom half of each roll, layer the scrambled eggs, followed by slices of fresh mozzarella (approximately 1 oz per roll), a few slices of tomato, and 4 fresh basil leaves.

6

Place the top halves of the rolls on the fillings, pressing down gently to secure.

7

Brush the outer sides of the rolls with more olive oil (approximately 1/2 tablespoon each) to ensure a crispy crust.

8

Place the sandwiches in the panini press or on the grill pan, applying gentle pressure or using a weight to press down, and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown.

9

Carefully remove the panini from the press or pan, let them cool slightly, and then serve warm.
