Cheesy Croissant Bake

 

Serves 4

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 25 minutes

 Ingredients:

-       4 croissants, halved

-       2 sliced thick cut ham, halved

-       Dijon mustard

-       50g watercress, any thick stalks removed

-       4 slices Swiss cheese

-       2 eggs

-       150ml milk

-       150ml cream

 

 Method:

  1. Preheat the oven to 180˚. Spread a little mustard on each croissant slice and then layer with the ham, cheese and watercress. Sandwich the halves together and place them in an ovenproof dish.

  2. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk and cream – season lightly with salt & pepper. Pour the mixture over the croissants and allow them to soak for around 15 minutes.

  3. Bake in the oven for around 25-30minutes, until the mixture is set and the croissants are golden brown.

You can sprinkle with a little extra grated cheese or even some fresh herbs for a little twist!
