1. 1Stir the mayonnaise and Dijon together and spread on one side of each bread slice. Spread the softened butter on the other side — the buttered side faces out for a golden, crisp crust.
2. 2Layer on the unbuttered sides: brie slices on two pieces of bread, then the turkey, a spoonful of cranberry sauce, and a handful of spinach. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
3. 3Close the sandwiches with the remaining bread, buttered side out.
4. 4Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Low and slow is the key — it melts the brie fully before the bread over-browns.
5. 5Cook the sandwiches 3–4 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bread is deep golden and the cheese is completely melted. Cover the pan for the last minute if the cheese needs help.
6. 6Rest 1 minute, then slice in half and serve hot, with extra cranberry sauce on the side for dipping.
7. 7These are best fresh, but you can wrap leftovers in foil and reheat in a 350°F oven for 10 minutes.
