Hot sandwiches with melted cheese, spicy baked pumpkin in maple syrup, onions caramelized in aromatic balsamic vinegar, and toasted almond flakes. Another interesting way to use pumpkin in dishes. These sandwiches aren't a quick fix, but the results are impressive. They combine a variety of rich flavors and textures: gooey cheese, soft pumpkin, crunchy nuts, and sticky onions. These sandwiches are delicious, filling, and can easily replace a full meal.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Preheat oven to 220°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Melt 2 tbsp (30 g) butter. On the prepared baking sheet, toss the pumpkin with the melted butter, maple syrup, chili seasoning, season with salt and pepper to taste. Bake until golden brown and tender, about 20 minutes. Then set aside and cool.
- Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon (15 g) butter in a medium skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onion and stir. Cook, without stirring, until the onion begins to brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the balsamic vinegar, sugar, and salt and pepper to taste. Cook, stirring, until the onion mixture thickens and becomes sweet, about 15 minutes more.
- Assembling a sandwichButter 1 slice of bread. On the other, ungreased side, arrange the ingredients in the following order: Manchego cheese, pumpkin, caramelized onions, sliced almonds, and more Manchego cheese. Top with another slice of bread, buttered side up. Assemble 3 more sandwiches using the remaining ingredients.
- Heat a heavy grill pan or flat griddle over medium heat. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons (30 g) butter in the pan. Lightly toast each sandwich, working in batches, until the cheese begins to melt, 3 to 4 minutes per side. The key is to toast slowly and over low heat to prevent the bread from burning while the cheese becomes gooey.
