Ingredients:

2 large

Egg Yolk

1 large

Egg

1 cup

Whole Milk

1 cup

Ham (diced)

Directions:

1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees

2

Place the 10 by 12-inch rectangle puff pastry on a lightly floured work surface with the short side in front of you and cut it into four 3-inch wide strips from left to right

3

Next cut each strip into 6 triangles

4

Arrange the triangles on the work surface with the tips facing you

5

Gently pull each tip toward you; this light stretch adds layers to the finished croissant without adding density

6

Place a small amount of chopped ham on the wide side of each triangle, about 1/2-inch from the edge

7

Use the tips of your fingers to roll the triangle from the base to the tip

8

Place the croissants seam side down on a parchment paper-covered baking sheet

9

Combine egg wash ingredients and brush the tops of the croissants

10

Bake until well risen and golden brown, about 20 minutes

11

Cool on a wire rack before serving
