Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Sliced ham
- 4 slices Sliced cheese (Swiss, mozzarella, or cheddar)
- 1 unit Large egg
- 2 tablespoons Almond flour
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
Instructions
In a medium bowl, crack the egg and whisk it until smooth. Add the almond flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined to form a batter.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter, allowing it to melt and coat the pan evenly.
Pour the batter into the skillet, forming a thin, even circle, similar to a crepe or thin pancake.
Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the underside is firm and golden brown.
Gently flip the crepe with a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the other side is also golden brown.
Once cooked, transfer the crepe to a clean cutting board or plate and let it cool for a minute.
Layer two slices of ham and two slices of cheese on one half of the crepe. Fold the other half over to form a sandwich.
Return the filled crepe to the skillet over low heat and cover with a lid. Allow it to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the ham is warmed through.
Carefully remove from the skillet, repeat the process for the second serving, slice each folded crepe in half, and serve immediately.
