Ingredients
Scale
For the Sandwiches:
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons salted butter
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 4 large croissants
- 8 slices cheese (such as gouda, baby swiss, cheddar, or your choice)
- ½ pound deli-sliced ham
- 8 slices cooked bacon
For the Eggs:
- 5 large eggs
- Splash of milk
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon butter
- Fresh chives for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Dijon-Honey Spread: In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, salted butter, and honey until smooth and well combined.
- Prepare the Eggs: In a medium bowl, beat the eggs with a splash of milk, and season with salt and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium-low heat, melt the butter, and pour in the eggs. Stir occasionally, cooking gently until the eggs are soft and scrambled. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Assemble the Sandwiches: Slice the croissants in half. Spread the Dijon-honey mixture on the inside of each croissant half.
- Layer the sandwiches: Place a slice of cheese on the bottom half of each croissant. Add a few slices of deli ham, then top with 2 slices of cooked bacon. Spoon the scrambled eggs onto the bacon, and top with another slice of cheese. Close the sandwich with the top half of the croissant.
- Heat the Sandwiches: If you prefer your sandwiches warm and the cheese melted, place them on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven for 5-7 minutes until the cheese is melted and the croissants are golden.
- Serve: Garnish with fresh chives if desired, and serve immediately.
Notes
- Feel free to swap the deli ham for turkey, chicken, or sausage, depending on your preference.
- You can also add some avocado slices or fresh tomatoes for extra flavor and texture.
- For a slightly healthier version, use whole-grain croissants or a lighter cheese.
