How to Make Baked Ham and Cheese Croissants

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut each croissant in half lengthwise. Spread a layer of Dijon mustard on the inside of the bottom half. Layer with slices of ham and cheese, then place the top half back on.
If using an egg for a golden finish, beat it and brush it over the top of each croissant.
Arrange the filled croissants on the baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes.
Allow the croissants to cool slightly before serving.
