Ingredients
- 2 slices Dairy-free bread (sliced)
- 2 slices Dairy-free cheese (such as almond or coconut-based slices or shreds)
- 2 slices Sliced cooked ham
- 1 tablespoon Dairy-free butter or margarine
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat.
Step 2
Spread a thin layer of dairy-free butter or margarine on one side of each slice of bread.
Step 3
If desired, spread Dijon mustard on the non-buttered side of one or both slices of bread for added flavor.
Step 4
Place one slice of bread, buttered side down, onto the preheated skillet.
Step 5
Layer one slice of dairy-free cheese on top of the bread in the skillet.
Step 6
Add the sliced cooked ham evenly on top of the cheese.
Step 7
Place the second slice of dairy-free cheese on top of the ham.
Step 8
Top with the second slice of bread, buttered side up.
Step 9
Cook the sandwich for 3-4 minutes on the first side, pressing gently with a spatula to ensure even browning and melting of the cheese.
Step 10
Carefully flip the sandwich and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes on the second side, or until the bread is golden and crispy, and the dairy-free cheese has melted.
Step 11
Remove the sandwich from the skillet, let it rest for 1-2 minutes, and then slice in half if desired. Serve warm.
