Ingredients

  • 16 mini croissants
  • 8 slices Jarlsberg cheese each slice cut into 4 long strips
  • 200 grams/7 oz ham
  • 2 roma tomato thinly sliced

Croissant Glaze

  • 40 grams/3 tablespoons butter unsalted
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon dijon mustard

Garnish (optional):

  • chives finely chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven: preheat the oven to 180°C / 350-375°F / Gas Mark 4-5.
  • Prepare the croissants: use a knife and chopping board to cut each mini croissant in half lengthways.
  • Cheese: layer the base of each croissant with a cut slice of cheese.
  • Ham: place 2 slices of cut ham on top of the cheese.
  • Tomato (optional): place 2 pieces of sliced tomato on top of the ham.
  • More cheese: place another piece of cut cheese on top of the ham.
  • Close: place the top of the croissant onto the base of the croissant.
  • Baking tray: transfer each mini croissant sandwich to a silicon mat above an oven rack and tray.
  • Glaze: melt the butter in a heatproof jug. Then add the honey, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, poppy seeds and mustard seeds. Whisk to combine. Then microwave for 20 seconds. Use a pastry brush to brush the honey mustard glaze over the top of each mini croissant.
  • Oven bake: place the baking tray into the oven on the middle shelf. Bake the croissants for 10 minutes until the cheese has melted and the croissants have turned golden brown.
  • Serve: use oven mits to remove the baking tray from the oven and place it onto a heat proof surface. Then use kitchen tongs to transfer the croissants to a serving plate. Sprinkle freshly chopped chives over the top for garnish.

Notes

  • Portion size: this will really depend on if you are serving only the croissants or if you are serving them as an appetizer and or with other finger foods. As a starting point 1 mini croissant sandwich per person will tick things off.
