Grilled ham and cheese pull-apart sandwiches are the ultimate comfort food with a buttery crust and gooey filling, perfect for casual gatherings or indulgent snacks.

Ingredients

  • Sliced bread (preferably thick-cut, such as brioche or sourdough)
  • Thinly sliced deli ham (e.g., honey ham, smoked ham, or Black Forest)
  • Cheese (Swiss, cheddar, or mozzarella)
  • Unsalted butter, melted
  • Dijon mustard
  • Mayonnaise
  • Garlic powder (optional)
  • Poppy seeds (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your skillet or griddle over medium heat. If using an oven, preheat to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a small mixing bowl, combine 4 tablespoons (56g) of melted butter, 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard, and ½ teaspoon of garlic powder. Stir until well blended.
  3. Lay out your slices of bread on a clean surface. Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on one side of each slice.
  4. Add a layer of deli ham (about 2-3 slices per sandwich) and top with a slice of cheese. Place another slice of bread on top, mayonnaise side down, to form a sandwich.
  5. Brush the butter mixture generously over the top of each sandwich. Sprinkle poppy seeds if desired.
  6. If using a skillet, place the sandwiches onto the hot surface. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese has melted.
  7. If baking, arrange the sandwiches in a baking dish, cover with foil, and bake for 10 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes to crisp up the tops.
  8. Once done, use a sharp knife to cut the sandwiches into smaller, easy-to-pull-apart sections. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

[‘Don’t skimp on the butter for a crispy exterior.’, ‘Choose quality cheese for a gooey texture.’, ‘Preheat your skillet for even cooking.’, ‘Avoid overloading the filling to prevent sogginess.’, ‘Let the sandwiches rest for 2-3 minutes after cooking for easier cutting.’]
