Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 package (8 oz) pre-made croissant dough
  • 4 oz sliced ham
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (mix of cheddar and Swiss)
  • 1 egg (for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) ensuring it reaches the ideal cooking temperature for perfectly cooked croissants.
  2. Prepare Dough: Unroll the croissant dough on a clean surface and separate the triangles carefully to keep their shape intact.
  3. Add Filling: Place slices of ham evenly on each dough triangle, then sprinkle shredded cheddar and Swiss cheese on top.
  4. Roll Croissants: Starting from the wider end of each triangle, roll the dough towards the tip, tucking in the edges neatly to seal the filling inside.
  5. Apply Egg Wash: Beat the egg and brush each rolled croissant generously to ensure a beautiful golden finish during cooking.
  6. Air Fry: Arrange the croissants in a single layer in the air fryer basket, avoiding overcrowding, and cook for 8-10 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  7. Check and Serve: At around 8 minutes, check for doneness and once the croissants are nicely browned and crisp, remove them and allow to cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • Ensure not to overcrowd the air fryer basket to allow even cooking and browning.
  • You can substitute ham with other deli meats or add veggies for variation.
  • Use an egg wash for a shiny, golden finish but it can be omitted for a dairy-free option.
  • Serve warm for the best taste and melty cheese experience.
