Croque-Monsieur

Ingredients

  • 24 slices bread
  • 24 slices Gruyere cheese
  • 12 slices honey-cured ham, not too thinly sliced...about 1 ounce each
  • 1/4 cup olive oil

Method

  • Preheat oven to 400F.
  • Brush the bread slices with olive oil on one side. On each slice place a piece of cheese. On half of the bread slices, place a ham slice. Top each of the cheese/ham slices with the other cheese topped bread slices. Press together. Brush all sides with olive oil (or dip each side in olive oil). Arrange on a sheet pan and place in 400F oven for about 10-12 minutes.
