Steps to Make It

Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 F.
Slice 4 large croissants in half lengthwise and place on a baking sheet.
Spread 1 teaspoon of dijon mustard on each cut slice.
Place one piece of Swiss cheese down on the bottom slices of the croissants. The slices may need to be torn in half to cover the surface of the croissant while avoiding the hole in the center.
Top each croissant with two slices of the deli ham.
Top with the remaining cheese slices, once again, torn if necessary.
Place the croissant tops on top. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melty and the croissants are warm and toasted.
Enjoy immediately, fresh and warm from the oven.

How to Store Ham and Cheese Croissants

Assembled and baked ham and cheese croissants are best when served hot and fresh from the oven. They can sit out for a few hours, but they will lose their crisp texture as they sit.
Leftover ham and cheese croissants can be wrapped and stored in the refrigerator for up to one day. They can then be reheated in a 350 F oven for 5 minutes or in the microwave for 20 seconds.
Although fresh croissants can last for a few days before consuming, like all fresh bread, they taste better when enjoyed on the same day.
