Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole baguette
- 6 slices sliced ham
- 6 slices cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 teaspoons dijon mustard
- 1 handful arugula (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) or prepare a stovetop grill pan over medium heat.
Slice the baguette into two equal portions, then cut each portion lengthwise to open like a sandwich.
Spread about 1 teaspoon of dijon mustard on the inner sides of each baguette half.
Layer 3 slices of ham and 3 slices of cheddar cheese on the bottom half of each baguette portion.
If using, add a handful of arugula on top of the ham and cheese layer.
Close the baguette halves to form a sandwich and gently press down.
Spread a thin layer of butter on the outer sides of the baguette to create a crisp golden crust when toasting.
Place the baguette sandwiches in the oven on a baking sheet or onto a preheated grill pan. Toast for 5 minutes on each side or until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden and crisp.
Remove from the heat and let cool slightly for 2 minutes before slicing if needed.
Serve warm and enjoy your Ham Cheese Baguette Toast!
