These charming tea sandwiches, a fresh twist on the classic BLT, are made with prosciutto, romaine lettuce, tomato, and an oh-so tasty bacon jam.
Tomato, Prosciutto & Bacon Jam Tea Sandwiches
Serves: 6
Ingredients
- 6 slices firm white sandwich bread, frozen
- 6 slices prosciutto, slightly frozen
- 3 romaine lettuce leaves
- ¼ cup bacon jam*
- 6 thinly sliced plum tomatoes, salted and blotted dry
Instructions
- • Using a 2-inch round cutter, cut 12 rounds from frozen bread slices, discarding scraps. Cover bread rounds with damp paper towels or store in a resealable plastic bag and let thaw.
- • Using the same cutter, cut 12 rounds from prosciutto and 6 rounds from lettuce.
- • Spread a layer of bacon jam onto bread rounds. Place 2 prosciutto rounds onto jam side of 6 bread rounds. Top each prosciutto round with a tomato slice and a lettuce round. Cover each with a remaining bread round, jam side down, to make 6 whole sandwiches.
- • Serve immediately, or cover with damp paper towels, place in a covered container, refrigerate, and serve within 2 hours.
- • Just before serving, secure each with a golf flag pick, if desired.
