- Prepare Cheese Mixture: In a small bowl, combine the softened goat cheese, honey, and ground cinnamon; mix until smooth and well blended.
- Assemble Sandwiches: Spread the cheese mixture evenly on the bottom halves of the croissants, layer thin apple slices over the cheese, add fresh arugula if desired, and then place the top halves of the croissants over the filling.

Notes
- Use tart apples like Granny Smith for a nice contrast to the sweetness of the honey and goat cheese.
- Arugula adds a peppery bite but can be omitted if preferred.
- For a crispier croissant, you can toast it lightly before assembling.
- Adjust honey quantity according to desired sweetness.
- Serve as a quick breakfast or an elegant snack.
