These Deviled Ham Finger Sandwiches are the perfect combination of classic charm and bold flavor. Creamy, smoky, and a little spicy, the deviled ham spread is made with finely chopped ham, mayo, mustard, and spices, all sandwiched between soft white or rye bread for the ultimate tea sandwich or party snack.
I first discovered these at a vintage-themed party and couldn’t stop going back for more. The balance of savory ham, tangy mustard, and a touch of heat from hot sauce or cayenne is truly addictive. They’re so easy to make and even easier to devour.
These finger sandwiches are ideal for Halloween parties, bridal showers, or old-fashioned luncheons. You can cut them into spooky shapes for themed gatherings or keep them classic with crustless rectangles.
Make the spread a day in advance and assemble right before serving. Whether you’re feeding kids or a room full of adults, these deviled ham finger sandwiches deliver flavor, fun, and nostalgia in every bite.
