Preheat the oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine almond flour, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream.
Add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients and mix until combined. Fold in the grated mozzarella cheese.
Divide the batter into two equal portions and shape each into a rectangular shape on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the bread begins to turn golden on the edges.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes.
In a skillet over medium heat, melt butter and lightly toast each slice of low-carb bread until crispy on the outside.
On each slice of bread, layer 2 slices of ham and top with shredded cheddar cheese.
Place the toasts back in the oven for 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired and serve immediately.
