Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 slices Almond flour bread
- 3 oz Ham
- 2 slices Cheddar cheese
- 2 tbsp Butter
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp Mayonnaise
- 0.25 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Pepper
Instructions
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat.
Spread 1 tablespoon of butter on one side of each slice of almond flour bread.
On the unbuttered side of one slice, spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard.
Next, layer the cheddar cheese slices on top of the mustard-covered bread. It's important to place the cheese directly against the bread to ensure it melts evenly.
Add the slices of ham on top of the cheese, followed by spreading mayonnaise on the unbuttered side of the other slice of bread.
Season the ham with salt and pepper to taste.
Place the slice of bread with mayonnaise on top of the ham, mayonnaise side down, to form a sandwich.
Add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the preheated skillet, allowing it to melt and coat the pan evenly.
Place the sandwich in the skillet, and cook it over medium-low heat. Use a spatula to press down gently, ensuring even browning.
Grill for approximately 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy and the cheese is fully melted.
Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it rest for a minute before slicing it in half.
Serve immediately and enjoy your keto-friendly grilled ham and cheese sandwich.
