Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Dough: Unroll croissant dough on a floured surface, ensuring it is at room temperature and gently separate the dough triangles while preheating the air fryer to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Add the Filling: Place a slice of ham onto each dough triangle and sprinkle a generous amount of shredded cheese on top.
  3. Roll Them Up: Starting from the wider end, roll the dough towards the tip, tucking in the edges to keep the filling inside. Place seam side down on a parchment-lined tray.
  4. Brush with Egg Wash: Beat the egg and apply the wash over each croissant with a pastry brush for a golden finish.
  5. Air Fry Them: Place croissants in the basket without touching, set for 8-10 minutes at 350°F (175°C), checking for golden brown color.
  6. Check for Doneness: After 8 minutes, check frequently until golden brown and cheese is melted; may require additional time.
