Place the 4 slices of sourdough bread on a clean work surface. Spread 1 tablespoon of cranberry sauce on 2 of the slices and 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard on the other 2 slices.
Layer 4 ounces of roasted turkey breast on top of the cranberry sauce on each slice. Add 2 slices of Swiss cheese and 1/2 cup of baby spinach to each sandwich.
Close each sandwich with the mustard-coated slices of sourdough bread, pressing down gently to secure the fillings.
Spread 1/2 tablespoon of butter evenly on the outside of each slice of bread, ensuring full coverage for a crisp golden crust.
Heat a panini press or large skillet over medium heat. If using a skillet, place the sandwiches in the pan and weigh them down with a heavy pan or spatula.
Cook the sandwiches for 3–4 minutes per side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted. If using a panini press, cook for 5–6 minutes or until crispy and heated through.
Remove the panini from the heat and let them rest for 1–2 minutes. Slice each panini in half and serve warm.
