Hot Honey Mustard Ham + Cheese Croissant Sliders

Share:

Breakfast, Cocktails

My goal every year for hosting Easter Brunch is simple: feed a crowd, but keep it easy and make it delicious. I’m always going to think about Easter being synonymous with ham (I don’t know why lol,) so I decided to make these absolutely fabulous ham croissant sliders that are slathered in a hot honey mustard butter with melty cheese. Naturally, I’ve got a drink pairing for you as well!


As always the ?? ingredients ?? matter ??, especially when the ingredient is the star of the show. Both Four Roses and Kentucky Legend have over 100 years of crafting high quality premium products, and are incredible at what they do. If you haven’t tried @Kentucky_Legend ‘s Baked Honey Smoked Ham… you’ve gotta asap. Premium quality, pre-cooked, pre-sliced and so dang good-Highly recommend! The same goes for the bourbon in our bourbon aperol spritzes. I’m using one of my husband’s personal faves @FourRosesBourbon Small Batch and it pairs perfectly with our ham sliders.

My fam ate these in approximately .5 seconds btw, lol . Recipe below – INGREDIENTS: 6-8 Croissants Baked Honey Smoked Ham 1 stick of butter 1 tbsp hot honey 2 tbsp Dijon mustard 1 tbsp whole grain mustard 1 tbsp Brown sugar 1 tbsp poppy seeds, optional 12 Slices of Cheddar DIRECTIONS: First, cut croissants in half. Then spread whole grain mustard inside of the croissant. Layer the ham slices with the cheese slices, then repeating again. Close the croissants and place onto a greased baking sheet or baking dish. Whisk together melted butter, hot honey, Dijon mustard, brown sugar, and poppy seeds then slather on the tops of the croissants. Cover with foil and bake for 15-20 min at 350, until cheese is melted. Remove foil and bake for a few more minutes, to get the tops nice and toasty – being careful not to burn!

Where the magic happens

Humbled, honored and quite frankly SHOOK to be lis Humbled, honored and quite frankly SHOOK to be listed among the @forbes 14 Best Cookbooks this Fall. 😭 Thank you for this incredible honor @forbes @monica.x - and what incredible company to be in. ❤️

3 DAYS until my book baby, Oversharing, is out in the world. I wish I could tell little Cort that one day her cookbook would be ranked alongside Ina Garten… she’d pass out. 😭🤣

It’s a funny thing becoming a mother. I see the wo It’s a funny thing becoming a mother. I see the world through a totally different lens now - including the way I see moments like this with my own mom.

I watch her cry because she’s proud of me, and I get it now. I know what it feels like to love your kid so much their joy feels like your own.

My cookbook, Oversharing, is out in one week. And it only feels right to honor the original Oversharer in my life - the woman who taught me that food is love, more is more, and there’s really no such thing as telling too much. 🤍
Unfortunately, no the book does not come with $1,0 Unfortunately, no the book does not come with $1,000 but it does come with over 100 recipes 🤣 ONE WEEK TILL PUB!!!!!
