Ingredients

• 1 quantity Fathead with coconut
• 150 g sliced leg ham
• 4 slices tasty or cheddar cheese
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• salt to taste

Instructions

• Make Fathead according to recipe adding garlic powder and salt. Roll out thinly into a rectangle. Cut out equal sized squares about the size of a slice of bread. Gather up the excess dough, reheat in the microwave (about 20 seconds) and roll out and cut more squares.
  
• You should have enough for 8 squares or 4 toasties and even might have a bit of Fathead leftover. If you do you can cut and bake in the oven to make little cheese type crackers/chips.
• Heat sandwich press and place two squares of Fathead on it next to each other. I didn’t need to grease my press but if you’re worried it might stick then grease the press with a little butter.
  
• Leave the press open and let the 2 Fathead squares toast for a few minutes. You don’t need to properly cook them, just firm them up and brown very lightly. Once done, flip them so the lightly toasted side is facing up.
  
• Top one of the squares with ham and cheese. Top with the other square, browned side facing down. Close the press and toast until the Fathead is nicely browned, cheese is melted and ham is warmed through.
  
• Remove from press and repeat with remaining ingredients to make 4 toasties.
  
• Cut into halves diagonally and serve!

If you don't have a sandwich press you can make the toasties in a non-stick pan similarly to a grilled cheese sandwich.
