The pros: Trader Joe's Uncured Ham and Swiss Cheese Flaky Croissant are the newest to a growing line of croissant products. These are well priced compared to getting these already made.
The cons: These are squares instead of the rolled shape of a regular croissant. It was a touch doughy in the middle.
The verdict: 
Maybe croissants are the new cauliflower. One can only hope. It seems like all of a sudden Trader Joe's has rolled out a whole bunch of different croissant based products.
Now, two items currently remain unchanged: the Chocolate Croissants and the Almond Croissants.
The the last couple months we have seen the addition of the Croissini which are like a sesame breadstick. They've even gone back and revised the mini croissants.
The key thing with the addition of the Croissini and the Mini Croissants was they took out the proof time. So on basically no notice you can pop them in the oven and get something delicious.
In true croissant fashion, the second ingredient here is butter. Always a good sign in my book. Also, the calorie count all things considered is pretty reasonable.
No proofing and about 20 in the oven and you have a small but tasty light lunch. When I say light lunch, I do mean you'll probably want a salad or something to go on the side of these.
Each of these is individually wrapped so you could bring them for lunch if you so wanted to, but I think they were wrapped to keep the toppings contained.
Out of the toaster oven you get a nicely flaky croissant base with finely chopped ham and sprinkles of cheese. The Swiss Cheese became more of a crust because I cooked it the full 20 minutes to ensure the bottom had enough time to create flaky layers.
Overall, I really liked these. The middle was probably the least flaky, but I enjoyed every bite. If your savory side wasn't quite satisfied by the addition of Trader Joe's Croissini then here is your square shaped savory croissant.
For $4.99 the price is on point too. You'll be lucky to get two of these for that price if you have them out.

I thought these were very good especially for the price. I was a little off on my comment yesterday about them being visually similar to Starbucks ham and cheese pockets. Their current ham and cheese croissant pocket offering looks more like a traditional croissant but folded over. As little as a year ago they had them as squares which are not only remarkably similar in appearance but also in taste to Trader Joes squares. I did them in my air fryer so they got crispy 360°. Came out really well that way. I do think they need a little bit more cheese a lot more cheese LOL. The value is pretty awesome! I had one last night warm & one cold this a.m. And it was still somewhat crispy.
Ps- aside from my previous comment above I believe air fryers may be the better way to go because you get the heating 360 and I had meant to mention that it took a lot less time. Mine came out crispy all over at about 350-375 degrees. Took about 12 minutes tops.
I am going to try the air fryer! I just bought these yesterday!
Hey John! I can't wait to hear how they come out in the air fryer. I polished off my box before getting a chance to try it out.
