Ingredients
  

For the croissants
  • 1 roll Rolle Blätterteig (puff pastry)
  • 150 g Parmaschinken (Parma ham) Use high-quality for better flavor.
  • 100 g Frischkäse (cream cheese) Ensure it's spreadable for easy assembly.
  • 50 g Rucola (arugula) Can be substituted with spinach.
  • 1 unit Eigelb (egg yolk)
  • 1 EL Milch (tablespoon of milk)

Method
 

Preparing the Croissants
  1. Cut the puff pastry into triangles, then roll them up into 10-14 croissants.
  2. Whisk together the egg yolk and milk, then brush this mixture over the croissants.
Baking
  1. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (356°F) for about 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
Assembling
  1. Let them cool, then slice open the croissants.
  2. Spread cream cheese onto the inside, followed by the arugula and Parma ham.

Notes

These croissants are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the fridge for about 2–3 days. For freezing, ensure they are well-wrapped, and they’ll last for up to a month. Reheat in the oven for best results.
