Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Time 20m

Yield 1 Croissant

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 croissant
1 teaspoon mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 ounce ham, sliced
1 slice Swiss cheese
1 tablespoon grated Gruyere

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cut a pocket in the croissant. Spread mayonnaise and mustard in pocket. Stuff with ham and cheeses; place on a baking sheet. Bake until cheese melts, 10 to 12 minutes; serve.

Tips:

  • Use a sharp knife to slice the croissant in half. This will help prevent the croissant from tearing.
  • Spread the Dijon mustard evenly over the cut surfaces of the croissant. This will add flavor and help hold the sandwich together.
  • Layer the ham, cheese, and spinach on one half of the croissant. You can use any type of ham or cheese that you like. If you don't have spinach, you can use arugula or another type of leafy green.
  • Top with the other half of the croissant and press down gently to secure the sandwich.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and swirl to coat the pan. Once the butter is melted, add the sandwich and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the croissant is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
  • Serve the sandwich hot with your favorite sides.
