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
Directions
Step 1
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.
Step 2
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter, allowing it to melt and coat the pan evenly.
Step 3
Pour the batter into the skillet, forming a thin, even circle, similar to a crepe or thin pancake.
Step 4
Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the underside is firm and golden brown.
Step 5
Gently flip the crepe with a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the other side is also golden brown.
Step 6
Once cooked, transfer the crepe to a clean cutting board or plate and let it cool for a minute.
Step 7
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.
Step 8
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.
Step 9
Carefully remove from the skillet, repeat the process for the second serving, slice each folded crepe in half, and serve immediately.
