Ham and Cheese Croissants with The Laughing Cow
This ham and cheese croissant recipe is a quick, fuss-free tiffin idea packed with creamy flavour from The Laughing Cow Cheese Sachets. Perfect for busy mornings, it’s a warm, satisfying snack both kids and adults will enjoy.
How to Make
- 1.
Prep the croissants
Slice each croissant horizontally without cutting all the way through, like a book. If using day-old ones, warm them slightly on a tawa or in the oven. This step brings back that bakery-fresh softness you want in a homemade croissant.
- 2.
Spread the creaminess
Open a The Laughing Cow Creamy Cheese sachet and spread generously inside the croissant. You can add a hint of mustard for a gentle zing.
- 3.
Add the ham
Fold or cut ham slices to fit neatly inside each croissant. You can layer them for extra filling. Sprinkle a pinch of pepper or chilli flakes if your child enjoys a bit of spice.
- 4.
Toast or grill (optional)
Lightly butter the outsides and toast on a pan or sandwich press for that flaky, golden crunch. This makes it feel like the best croissant recipe with minimal effort.
- 5.
Pack and go
Let them cool slightly before packing into a lunchbox, or serve warm straight from the pan for a comforting snack.
