Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 whole Hamburger buns
- 8 slices Sliced cooked ham
- 1 cup (shredded) Cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven's broiler on high. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Split the hamburger buns in half and place them cut-side up on the lined baking sheet.
In a small bowl, mix together the butter, Dijon mustard, mayonnaise, salt, and pepper until smooth. Spread a thin layer of the mixture over each bun half.
Top each bun half with a slice of ham, folding it if necessary to fit neatly. Sprinkle a generous portion of shredded cheddar cheese on top of the ham.
Place the baking sheet under the broiler and broil for 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges of the buns are golden brown. Keep a close eye to prevent burning.
Remove the buns from the oven and allow them to cool for 1-2 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
Serve immediately while warm. These make a fantastic quick snack, brunch addition, or light lunch option!
