Turkey Croissant Sandwich – Simple, Fresh Lunch

This turkey croissant sandwich is the perfect finger food for tea parties or casual get-togethers.

With very basic ingredients, you might not even have to go to the grocery store for this recipe. Well, that’s if you always have croissants at home. Which we all do right? 😉 If you want to go above and beyond with this recipe, you can even make your own croissants from scratch!

Easy Turkey Croissant Sandwiches

My favorite part about these croissant sandwiches is the Dijon mustard mayonnaise because it gives the croissant sandwich a nice little kick of flavor. I prefer to use petite croissants because they look more elegant than a larger croissant cut in half. But that’s totally optional. I just think anything petite or miniature is cute 🙂

This recipe makes 6 sandwiches – enough for the entire family.

Ingredients:

• 6 petite butter croissants
• 18 slices smoked turkey breast
• 3 slices Havarti cheese
• Romaine lettuce

Sauce:

• 1/3 cup real mayonnaise
• 4 tbsp sour cream
• 3 tbsp Dijon mustard
• pinch of black pepper

How to make The Croissant Sandwich

As they say, the secret is in the sauce! And I’m sharing that secret sauce with you.

1.) Make the secret sauce

In a bowl whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, Dijon, and black pepper, and set aside.

2.) Toast the croissants

Cut each croissant in half and toast in the toaster on low heat. If you want to save time, you can also just put all 6 croissants – sliced – in the oven and broil until toasted.

3.) Put the sauce on the bread

Generously spread the Dijon mayonnaise on one half of the croissant, add 3 slices of turkey breast, half slice of Havarti cheese, and a small piece of romaine lettuce. Then top with the other half of the croissant.

What can you substitute for Havarti cheese?

If you can’t find Havarti cheese in the grocery store you can substitute it with Muenster cheese. They have the same flavor profile and both pair perfectly with my sauce. 

Can the sauce be used for other things?

Yes, it definitely can! I always make extra mayonnaise because it can easily be used for other recipes or different types of sandwiches.
