Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 4 large croissants
- 8 slices deli ham or thick-cut bacon
- 4 slices Swiss cheese
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter softened
Maple Mustard Glaze
- 0.25 cup maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, and black pepper until well combined. This is your maple mustard glaze.
- Carefully slice each croissant horizontally, but not all the way through, creating a pocket for the filling. Lightly butter the inside of each croissant.
- Layer two slices of ham and one slice of Swiss cheese inside each croissant. Arrange the ham and cheese to fit snugly.
- Place the filled croissants on the prepared baking sheet. Generously brush the top of the ham and cheese filling (and the inside of the top croissant half) with the maple mustard glaze.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, the ham is warmed through, and the croissants are lightly toasted and golden.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your warm, savory-sweet Maple Mustard Croissants!
Notes
For an extra touch, you can briefly pan-fry the ham slices before adding them to the croissant. You can also customize by adding a fried egg for a heartier breakfast sandwich, or a sprinkle of fresh chives for garnish.
