Directions
Toast the bread until just starting to color, do not over toast.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Spread two slices with equal amounts of the red onion jam (that you made in advance), sprinkle with a few grinding of fresh black pepper and top with the slices of Gruyere cheese. Top with the remaining slices of bread to form a sandwich.
Spread the butter on the outside of the sandwiches.
Place the sandwiches in the pan and grill for about 4 minutes, pressing down occasionally, until crispy and golden.
Flip and grill for another 4 minutes, or until crispy and golden.
