Croissants, with their origins rooted in Austrian and French baking traditions, have become a beloved pastry worldwide. This recipe for oven-baked herb and cheese stuffed croissants takes the classic buttery, flaky pastry and elevates it with a savory twist. By incorporating a blend of cheese and fresh herbs, these croissants offer a delightful contrast of textures and flavors. Perfect for brunch, a light lunch, or even as a sophisticated appetizer, these croissants are a testament to the versatility of this iconic pastry.
These herb and cheese stuffed croissants pair beautifully with a fresh green salad, perhaps with a light vinaigrette to complement the richness of the pastry. For a heartier meal, consider serving them alongside a bowl of creamy tomato soup or a chilled gazpacho. A glass of crisp white wine or a refreshing iced tea would also make excellent beverage companions to this dish.
