Ingredients

Base Ingredients

  • Fresh Croissants – 4 high-quality or freshly baked croissants
  • Eggs – 4 farm-fresh eggs
  • Bacon or Sausage – 6 slices of bacon or equivalent sausage links
  • Cheese – 4 slices of cheddar, Swiss, or mozzarella
  • Fresh Greens or Tomatoes – 1 cup mixed fresh greens or tomato slices

Optional Variations

  • Sautéed Mushrooms – 1/2 cup for vegetarian option
  • Avocado slices – 1 medium avocado, sliced
  • Jalapeños – 1-2, sliced for spicy kick
  • Honey Mustard or Fig Jam – 2 tablespoons for sweet & savory flavor
  • Multiple Cheese Types – 4 slices mixed Swiss and gouda for cheese lovers

Instructions

  1. Prep Your Ingredients: Gather croissants, eggs, cheese, and preferred protein. Cook bacon or sausage first if using, and chop any veggies or greens you’d like to add.
  2. Cook the Eggs: Prepare eggs to your liking—scrambled, fried, or omelet style. Keep warm while toasting croissants.
  3. Toast the Croissants: Slice croissants in half and toast lightly in a skillet or oven until golden and crisp on edges for enhanced flavor and texture.
  4. Assemble the Sandwiches: Layer cooked eggs, protein, cheese, and fresh veggies inside toasted croissant halves. The warmth will help melt the cheese perfectly.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Press sandwich gently, slice if desired, and serve immediately. Add sides or garnishes as preferred.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients for even cooking and perfect melting.
  • Don’t overcrowd the pan when cooking proteins to ensure crispiness.
  • Lightly butter croissants before toasting for extra golden crispness.
  • Choose cheeses that melt well like cheddar, Swiss, or mozzarella.
  • Customize heat level with spicy sauces or fresh peppers.
