Sandwich Components
- 2 croissants
- 1 medium apple, thinly sliced
- Fresh arugula (optional)
Cheese Mixture
- 115 g goat cheese, softened
- 15 ml honey
- 0.25 g ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Set the oven to 175°C (350°F) to prepare for warming the sandwiches.
- Slice the Croissants: Cut each croissant horizontally into two halves to create sandwich bases.
- Prepare the Cheese Mixture: In a small bowl, combine the softened goat cheese, honey, and ground cinnamon until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
- Assemble the Sandwiches: Spread the goat cheese mixture evenly on the bottom halves of the croissants. Layer the thinly sliced apples on top, add fresh arugula if desired, then cover with the top halves of the croissants.
- Warm the Sandwiches: Place the assembled sandwiches on a baking sheet and heat in the preheated oven for 5 to 7 minutes until they are warmed through and the flavors meld together.
- Serve: Remove the sandwiches from the oven and serve immediately while warm for the best taste experience.
Notes
- Use tart apples like Granny Smith for a nice balance against the sweet goat cheese mixture.
- Arugula is optional, but it adds a peppery freshness that complements the sweet and creamy flavors.
- For a crunchier texture, you can toast the croissants lightly before assembling.
- Adjust honey quantity to your desired sweetness level.
- Serve with a light salad or fresh fruit for a complete meal.
