Begin by spreading 0.5 tablespoon of butter on one side of each low-carb bread slice.
On the unbuttered side of one bread slice, evenly spread the Dijon mustard.
Layer the ham slices on top of the mustard-spread bread slice.
Evenly distribute the grated Cheddar cheese over the ham layer.
Sprinkle a pinch of salt and black pepper over the cheese for added flavor.
Place the second slice of bread on top to complete the sandwich, with the buttered side facing outward.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Place the sandwich in the skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on one side, pressing down gently with a spatula to ensure even toasting and cheese melting.
Flip the sandwich and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the second side until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese has melted completely.
Remove the toastie from the skillet and allow it to cool for a minute before slicing in half. Serve immediately and enjoy your low-carb classic cheese and ham toastie!
