Sandwich Ingredients
- 4 croissants
- 4 eggs
- 4 slices of cheese (cheddar, Swiss, or your choice)
- 8 slices of bacon or 4 slices of ham
Instructions
- Cook the bacon or ham: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy or warm the ham slices until heated through. Remove from skillet and set aside.
- Prepare the eggs: In the same skillet, cook eggs to your preference (fried, scrambled, or over-easy). Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Warm the croissants: Optional step – you can warm the croissants in the oven at 350°F for about 5 minutes or toast them lightly in a pan for extra crispness.
- Assemble the sandwich: Slice croissants in half horizontally, layer each with a cooked egg, cheese slice, and bacon or ham. Close the sandwich and serve immediately while warm.
Notes
- You can substitute bacon or ham with turkey or sausage for different flavors.
- Adding fresh greens like spinach or arugula can add freshness and nutrition.
- Use whole wheat or multigrain croissants for a healthier option.
- To melt the cheese perfectly, place the assembled sandwich in a hot skillet for 1-2 minutes on each side before serving.
