Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a small oven-safe dish or loaf pan.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, 1 egg, melted butter, baking powder, and salt until smooth. This will be your bread batter.
Pour the batter into the greased dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until the bread is firm to the touch and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Let the bread cool slightly, then slice it horizontally to create two slices of sandwich bread.
In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise and Dijon mustard.
Spread the mayonnaise mixture evenly on one side of each bread slice.
Place two slices of ham, one slice of cheese, one leaf of lettuce, and a few slices of tomato on each sandwich base.
Top with the remaining slice of bread, cut in half, and serve. Enjoy your Keto-friendly classic cheese and ham sandwich!
