Cheesy ham and egg baked sandwiches are warm, melty, and perfect for breakfast, brunch, or even dinner. 🥪🧀🍳
Here’s a simple, crowd-pleasing version:
🥪 Ingredients (Makes 4 sandwiches)
- 4 sandwich rolls or thick bread slices
- 4–6 slices ham
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Swiss, or mozzarella)
- 2 tbsp butter (softened)
- Salt & black pepper
- Optional: chopped chives or parsley
🔥 How to Make Them
1️⃣ Prep
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Slice rolls in half (or lightly hollow out the tops if using round rolls).
- Lightly butter the inside of the bread.
2️⃣ Assemble
- Layer ham on the bottom half.
- Crack one egg on top of the ham (you can scramble eggs first if you prefer fully set eggs).
- Sprinkle generously with cheese.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Place top half of bread on (optional for open-faced style).
3️⃣ Bake
- Place on a baking sheet.
- Bake 12–18 minutes, depending on how runny you like the yolk.
- Shorter time = softer yolk
- Longer time = fully set
🧀 Extra Flavor Ideas
- Add sautéed onions or spinach
- Spread Dijon mustard inside the bread
- Brush tops with melted butter + garlic powder before baking
💡 Make-Ahead Tip
For meal prep:
- Scramble eggs first
