DIRECTIONS
- Glaze and Bake the Ham:
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the ham in a baking dish, season with salt and pepper, and brush with 3 tablespoons of Reese Ham Glaze. Bake for approximately 15 minutes per pound. During baking, baste the ham twice more with 3 tablespoons of glaze each time—about every 30–40 minutes—then return to the oven to finish cooking. - Prepare the Eggs:
While the ham bakes, scramble the eggs in a nonstick pan, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside. - Slice and Assemble:
Once the ham is fully cooked, slice it thinly. Cut the croissants in half horizontally. Spread about ½ tablespoon of Reese Ham Glaze on the bottom half of each croissant. - Layer the Sandwiches:
Top the glazed croissant base with sliced ham and scrambled eggs. Drizzle a little more ham glaze over the eggs, then layer with provolone cheese. - Melt and Finish:
Place the open-faced croissants in a warm oven for 1–2 minutes, just until the cheese melts. Top each with a pickle slice and a arugula leaves, then close with the top half of the croissant.
