Deviled Ham and Pecan Tea Sandwiches

These devilled ham and pecan tea sandwiches offer a sophisticated twist on a classic high-protein snack. The combination of salty cooked ham and toasted pecans creates a rich, textured filling, while the addition of sweet gherkins and Dijon mustard provides a sharp, tangy contrast. It is a wonderfully savoury option for those looking to add a bit of substance to a traditional afternoon tea spread without compromising on elegance.

Quick to prepare and full of flavour, this recipe is ideal for hosting or as a satisfying bridge between meals. The gentle heat from the Tabasco ensures a warming finish that pairs perfectly with a crisp salad or a pot of Earl Grey. For the best results, use a firm white bread that can hold the generous filling and provide a clean finish once the crusts are removed.
