Indulge in the ultimate comfort food with this Gluten-Free Toasted Ham and Cheese Sandwich, a quick and delicious twist on a classic favorite. Perfectly crisp gluten-free bread is slathered with butter (or a dairy-free alternative) and given an optional flavor boost with gluten-free mayonnaise before being toasted to golden perfection. The savory duo of melty cheese and gluten-free ham inside makes each bite satisfyingly rich and hearty. Ready in just 10 minutes, this recipe is ideal for a hassle-free meal or snack. Whether you're navigating dietary restrictions or simply looking for a tasty treat, this sandwich delivers on flavor, texture, and convenience.
Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise (if using) on one side of each slice of gluten-free bread. This will add extra flavor and help with browning.
Spread butter on the other side of each bread slice. Be sure to cover the entire surface for even toasting.
Place one slice of bread, buttered side down, onto a heated non-stick skillet or pan over medium heat.
Layer one slice of cheese, followed by two slices of ham, and then the second slice of cheese onto the bread in the pan.
Top with the second slice of bread, buttered side up, to complete the sandwich.
Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, pressing gently with a spatula to encourage even toasting, until the bread is golden brown and crispy.
Flip the sandwich carefully and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side, until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown.
Remove from the pan and let the sandwich sit for 1 minute before slicing it in half and serving. Enjoy your gluten-free toasted ham and cheese sandwich!
