Ham and Cheese Croissant Recipe
Description
A warm and flaky ham and cheese croissant is an elegant sandwich that can make you feel like you've been transported to a French bistro. With only four ingredients, it is important to make each component the highest quality. This is the time to invest in the best sliced ham and cheese available at your deli counter, as well as a nice jar of Dijon mustard. If you really want to get fancy, you can even make your own homemade croissants.
Ingredients
- 4 large croissants
- 4 teaspoons dijon mustard
- 8 slices swiss cheese
- 8 slices thinly-sliced deli ham
Directions
- Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 F.
- Slice the croissants in half lengthwise and place on a baking sheet.
- Spread a thin layer of mustard on each cut slice.
- Place one piece of Swiss cheese down on the bottom slices of the croissants. The slices may need to be torn in half to cover the surface of the croissant while avoiding the hole in the center.
- Top each croissant with two slices of the deli ham.
- Top with the remaining cheese slices, once again, torn if necessary.
- Place the croissant tops on top. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melty and the croissants are warm and toasted.
- Enjoy immediately, fresh and warm from the oven.
