Toasted Ham and Brie on a Baguette with Fig Jam
My son was home sick last week with the flu. I wanted to make him something for lunch to help him feel better. He absolutely loves bread, ham, brie cheese, and fig jam separately so I decided to combine them together to make a sandwich. He LOVED it! Not only did he say it was the best sandwich ever, but he also said it made him feel better–how great is that?!? I couldn’t resist and snuck a bite of his sandwich– it was amazing!!! The combination of crispy bread with salty ham and creamy brie cheese topped with sweet fig jam is fantastic. I have a feeling this sandwich will be my son’s new favorite for a long time!
How to Make Toasted Ham and Brie on a Baguette with Fig Jam
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with tin foil.
Slice the mini baguette lengthwise then slather each half with a bit of fig jam. Layer one side with ham and the other side with sliced brie cheese. Place into the oven for 5-7 minutes or until the bread and meat are warmed through and the brie is melted. Remove from the oven and serve immediately. Enjoy.

I make a similar pizza but with fresh figs. This is a great alternative 🙂
Hi, firstly I hope your son is feeling better? SecondlyFig Jam – I love figs, fresh (my mums neighbour sometimes gives her some for me from their garden – yum) and dried. Seriously dried figs are my go to snack (check my website – I don’t do healthy/skinny/lowfat!!!) but I just love dried figs. BUT I’ve NEVER had fig jam! Perfect with your ham & Brie, or biscuits and cheese – or with a spoon??? I’m getting me some fig jam, thank you for enlightening me. Sammie http://www.feastingisfun.com

I love brie Pam! This look wonderful!!
I’d never have thought to put jam on a ham sandwich! Your son is a lucky boy to have a mom who can create such lovely sandwiches.
A very classy sandwich with some very special ingredients.
I want that fig jam! The sandwich looks delish, Pam.
sweet and salty desserts are the best, and i like sweet and salty main courses too. i almost always put a little something sweet on my meat and cheese sandwiches!
Wow!! What a great sandwich. Absolutely wonderful treat.
I love the sweet and salty in this!!
