HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

02

Carefully slice each croissant horizontally, without cutting all the way through, to create a pocket.

03

Spread 1/2 tablespoon of Dijon mustard evenly on the inside of each croissant.

04

Layer 2 slices of deli ham and 1 slice of Gruyère cheese inside each croissant.

05

Brush the tops of the filled croissants with the melted butter.

06

Place the croissants on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the croissants are golden brown.

Chef's Tips

For an extra touch, sprinkle a pinch of dried herbs like thyme or oregano on top of the buttered croissants before baking. You can also add a thin slice of tomato or a few spinach leaves for freshness.

Easy Substitutions

Feel free to substitute the ham with turkey or roast beef. If Gruyère is unavailable, Swiss cheese or even provolone can be used. For a vegetarian option, omit the ham and add roasted red peppers or sautéed mushrooms.
