Ingredients
Croissants
- 4 large croissants
Egg Mixture
- 4 eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Other
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 4 slices cooked bacon or ham
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) to prepare for warming the stuffed croissants.
- Prepare Croissants: Carefully slice each croissant in half horizontally without cutting all the way through, creating a hinge to hold the filling.
- Mix Eggs: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
- Scramble Eggs: Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat, then pour in the egg mixture. Stir gently and cook the eggs until they are just set but still soft and creamy.
- Stuff Croissants: Open each croissant and fill it evenly with the scrambled eggs, then layer a slice of cheddar cheese and one slice of cooked bacon or ham inside.
- Warm in Oven: Place the stuffed croissants on a baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the croissants are warmed through.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and serve immediately while warm for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- Add sautéed vegetables like spinach or mushrooms for extra flavor and nutrition.
- Swap cheddar cheese with mozzarella or Swiss cheese to vary the taste.
- Best enjoyed fresh; reheating may alter the texture of croissants.
