Ingredients
Scale
- 6 large croissants, halved
- 8 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp butter
- 6 slices deli ham (or cooked bacon/sausage)
- 6 slices sharp cheddar or Swiss cheese
- Optional: chopped chives, hot sauce, or baby spinach
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.
- In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add the egg mixture and cook, stirring gently, until just set. Remove from heat.
- Open each croissant and layer with ham, scrambled eggs, cheese, and optional toppings if using. Close with croissant top.
- Place assembled sandwiches on the prepared baking sheet. Cover loosely with foil and bake for 10–15 minutes, or until cheese is melted and croissants are warmed through.
- Serve immediately or wrap each sandwich tightly in foil to refrigerate or freeze for later.
- To reheat, warm in a 350°F (175°C) oven or toaster oven for 10–15 minutes until heated through.
Notes
- Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and for easy cleanup.
- Great for meal prep—wrap and freeze individually for grab-and-go mornings.
- Swap ham for bacon, turkey, or vegetarian sausage if desired.
- Add spinach or arugula for a fresh, green boost.
