After you have the dough made, but before you bake it...

Preheat oven to 350 F
Roll bread dough out on a large oiled or floured cutting board or clean counter.
Next spread mustard over the whole thing and then layer with shredded cheddar cheese and ham either shredded or cubed.

Finally roll your bread up just like you would cinnamon bread, and place in a loaf pan to bake for 25-30 min or until golden brown.
