Ingredients

Sandwich Ingredients

  • 4 large croissants, sliced
  • 8 slices creamy Havarti cheese
  • 16 slices deli turkey, roasted or smoked
  • 4 teaspoons apricot jelly or jam
  • 4 teaspoons honey mustard
  • ½ cup microgreens

Toppings and Finishing

  • 2 tablespoons melted garlic butter
  • Everything Bagel seasoning, to taste
  • Honey drizzle, to taste


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the croissant sandwiches.
  2. Prepare Croissants: Spread 1 teaspoon of apricot jelly or jam on one half of each sliced croissant and 1 teaspoon of honey mustard on the other half to add a balance of sweetness and tang.
  3. Assemble Fillings: Place 2 slices of creamy Havarti cheese on the jelly side of each croissant half, then layer 4 slices of roasted or smoked deli turkey on the honey mustard side. Sprinkle microgreens over the turkey halves, then close each sandwich carefully.
  4. Add Garlic Butter and Seasoning: Brush the tops of each assembled croissant generously with melted garlic butter. Sprinkle Everything Bagel seasoning over the top for a flavorful crust, then drizzle honey over each croissant for a subtle sweetness.
  5. Bake Croissants: Arrange the croissants on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 6-8 minutes or until the Havarti cheese is melted and the croissants are warmed through. Serve immediately while warm and gooey.

Notes

  • Use high-quality deli turkey for the best flavor.
  • Feel free to substitute Havarti cheese with Swiss or mozzarella if preferred.
  • Adjust the amount of Everything Bagel seasoning and honey drizzle to taste.
  • Serve these croissants warm for optimal gooey cheese texture.
  • Microgreens add a fresh, peppery crunch but can be omitted or replaced with arugula.
