Buttery Ham and Cheese Croissant Simple Breakfast Treat

The buttery ham and cheese croissant is a quick and easy breakfast. You can make it in just 25 minutes. This treat is perfect for any morning.

To start, gather your ingredients. You will need croissants, ham, Swiss cheese, and butter. Also, grab Dijon mustard, garlic powder, thyme, salt, and pepper.

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This helps the croissants bake evenly. In a bowl, mix the softened butter, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, thyme, salt, and pepper. This will be your tasty spread.

Next, carefully slice each croissant in half. You want to create a pocket for the filling. Spread your buttery mixture inside each croissant. Be generous!

Now, add the sliced ham. Use about two ounces per croissant. Top the ham with Swiss cheese. Again, use two ounces for each croissant.

Close the croissants and place them seam side down on a baking sheet. Line the sheet with parchment paper to avoid sticking. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes. Watch for that golden brown color and melted cheese.

Once baked, let them cool for a moment. Serve warm, garnished with fresh thyme. This simple breakfast treat will impress anyone!
