Ingredients
  

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

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Unroll the croissant dough on a clean surface and separate the triangles.
  3. Place slices of ham on each triangle, then top with shredded cheese.
  4. Roll from the wider end of the triangle towards the tip, tucking in the edges to seal.
  5. Brush each rolled croissant with beaten egg for a golden finish.
Cooking
  1. Arrange in a single layer in the air fryer basket and cook for 8-10 minutes until golden brown.
  2. Check doneness at 8 minutes; remove once crispy and let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

Serve these croissants warm, they can be paired with a side of fruit or a light salad. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them back in the air fryer at 350°F for a few minutes until warm and crispy again. You can also add herbs, different cheeses, or vegetables for variations.
