Print Recipe

Indulge in the flaky, golden goodness of Air Fryer Ham Cheese Croissants. These easy pastries are stuffed with savory ham and melty cheese, then air-fried to crispy perfection. Ideal for brunch, snacks, or a quick breakfast, they turn store-bought croissant dough into a warm, bakery-style treat in just minutes.

Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 package (8 oz) pre-made croissant dough

  • 4 oz sliced ham

  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar and Swiss mix recommended)

  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer to 350°F (175°C).

  • Unroll the croissant dough on a clean surface and separate into triangles.

  • Place a slice of ham on each triangle and top with shredded cheese.

  • Roll each triangle from the wide end toward the tip, gently tucking in the sides to seal.

  • Brush the tops with beaten egg for a shiny, golden finish.

  • Arrange croissants in a single layer in the air fryer basket, leaving space between them.

  • Air fry for 8–10 minutes, checking at 8 minutes, until puffed and golden brown.

  • Remove and let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • Cheese swaps: Try mozzarella, pepper jack, or Gruyère for different flavors.

  • Meat options: Substitute turkey or roast beef for ham.

  • Flavor boost: Add a thin spread of Dijon mustard or pesto before rolling.

  • Storage: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

  • Reheating: Air fry at 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes to restore crispiness.
