On a wooden board, assemble all sliced fruits, mixed cheese, and honey.

Spread an even layer of cheese on both slices of the bread, and assemble with alternating slices of fruits (dip the fruit slices in lemon juice to keep them from turning brown).

Sprinkle a little honey on fruit. Sandwich together.

Brush a little melted butter or grape seed oil on both exterior sides of the bread.

Press on hot panini grill until cheese is melted and oozing.
