Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Croissants
- 200 grams Sliced ham
- 200 grams Cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon, chopped Fresh parsley (optional)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut each croissant in half lengthwise, ensuring that each half remains attached at the back to open like a book.
In a small bowl, mix the Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper.
Spread the mustard mixture evenly on the inside of each croissant.
Layer about 50 grams of ham and 50 grams of cheese on the bottom half of each croissant.
Close the croissant gently and press down slightly to hold the filling in place.
Melt the butter in a small saucepan or microwave. Brush the tops of the croissants with the melted butter.
Place the filled croissants on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the croissants are golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
Sprinkle with chopped parsley, if desired, just before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Croissant Ham and Cheese.
