Preheat your oven or toaster oven to 350°F (175°C).
Slice the gluten-free baguette lengthwise to create two halves. If the baguette is particularly thick, you can slice it into three pieces.
Spread butter evenly on each half of the baguette.
Place the buttered baguette halves in the preheated oven and toast for about 3-4 minutes until lightly golden and crisp.
While the bread is toasting, mix the Dijon mustard and mayonnaise in a small bowl. Set aside.
Wash and dry the romaine lettuce leaves, and slice the tomato into thin rounds.
Remove the toasted baguette from the oven. Spread an even layer of the mustard-mayo mixture on each half.
Layer the bottom half of the baguette with the slices of ham, followed by the slices of Swiss cheese.
Place the baguette back in the oven for an additional 1-2 minutes, just enough to slightly melt the cheese.
Remove the baguette from the oven, add romaine lettuce and tomato slices over the melted cheese.
Season the tomato slices with salt and black pepper.
Top with the second half of the baguette, slice the baguette into 2 portions and serve immediately.
