Preheat the oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and slice them into 1/4-inch thick coins.
Arrange the potato slices on the prepared baking sheet and brush both sides with olive oil. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Bake the potato coins for 20 minutes, flipping them halfway through cooking. They should be golden brown and crispy on the edges.
While the potato coins bake, prepare the smoked ham salad. In a medium mixing bowl, combine diced smoked ham, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, diced celery, green onion, parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine and set aside.
Once the potato coins are finished baking, remove them from the oven and sprinkle the grated Gruyere cheese evenly over the tops of each potato slice. Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the Gruyere potato coins from the oven and allow them to cool slightly.
Top each potato coin with a small spoonful of the smoked ham salad.
Garnish with additional parsley or a small piece of green onion if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.
