Ham and Cheese Croissant Sandwiches (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Sandwiches

01 - 6 regular croissants
02 - 12 oz deli ham, sliced
03 - 12 slices Swiss cheese
04 - ½ cup honey mustard sauce

→ Garlic Butter Topping

05 - 2 tbsp butter, melted
06 - ½ tsp garlic powder
07 - ¼ tsp Italian seasoning

# Instructions:

01 - Preheat your oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. These warm, melty croissant sandwiches are going to be incredible!
02 - Carefully slice each croissant in half horizontally to create top and bottom pieces. Try to keep them as even as possible for the best sandwich shape.
03 - Place the bottom halves of the croissants on your prepared baking sheet. Spread each bottom with honey mustard sauce, but save some for the tops too.
04 - On each croissant bottom, layer one slice of Swiss cheese, then about 2 oz of deli ham (roughly 2 slices), and top with another slice of cheese. This double cheese layer ensures maximum meltiness!
05 - Spread more honey mustard sauce on the inside of each croissant top, then place them over the filled bottoms to create 6 complete sandwiches.
06 - In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. This aromatic topping is what makes these sandwiches extra special.
07 - Using a pastry brush, generously brush the garlic butter mixture over the tops of all the sandwiches. Bake for 12-14 minutes until the croissants are golden brown and the cheese is completely melted.
08 - Remove from the oven and let cool for just a minute or two. Serve warm with extra honey mustard sauce on the side for dipping. These are absolutely delicious!

# Notes:

01 - These elegant croissant sandwiches are perfect for brunch, lunch, or even a light dinner with a side salad.
02 - The garlic butter topping adds incredible flavor and helps create that beautiful golden, crispy exterior.
03 - Swiss cheese melts beautifully and pairs perfectly with ham, but Gruyère or white cheddar work great too.
04 - You can assemble these ahead of time and refrigerate, then brush with garlic butter and bake when ready.
05 - The honey mustard adds a sweet and tangy element that elevates these from ordinary to extraordinary.
