Description

Delightful Croissant Breakfast Sandwiches featuring a savory blend of scrambled eggs, deli ham, crispy bacon, and melty cheese, all enhanced with a sweet and tangy Dijon honey spread. Perfect for a quick and satisfying morning meal with an optional buttery skillet toast for a golden finish.


Ingredients

For the Spread:

  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons salted butter
  • 2 tablespoons honey

For the Sandwiches:

  • 4 large croissants
  • 8 slices of cheese (Gouda, baby Swiss, cheddar, or your favorite)
  • 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 (optional, for garnish)


Instructions

  1. Make the Dijon Honey Spread: In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, salted butter, and honey until smooth. Set aside.
  2. Prepare the Eggs: In a bowl, whisk together the 5 eggs, a splash of milk, salt, and pepper to taste.
  3. Cook the Scrambled Eggs: Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once the butter is melted, pour in the egg mixture. Gently scramble the eggs with a spatula, cooking until just set. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  4. Assemble the Sandwiches: Slice the croissants in half horizontally, but not completely through to keep them hinged.
  5. Spread the Dijon Honey Mixture: Spread a generous amount of the Dijon honey spread on the inside of each croissant half.
  6. Add Cheese: Place 2 slices of your chosen cheese on the bottom half of each croissant.
  7. Add Ham and Bacon: Layer a few slices of deli-sliced ham and 2 slices of cooked bacon on top of the cheese.
  8. Add Scrambled Eggs: Spoon a portion of the prepared scrambled eggs over the ham and bacon.
  9. Close the Sandwiches: Fold the croissants closed to form sandwiches.
  10. Toast the Sandwiches (Optional): For a crispy, golden finish, melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Place the assembled sandwiches in the skillet and cook 2-3 minutes per side until croissants are golden and cheese is melted.
  11. Serve: Garnish sandwiches with chopped fresh chives if desired, and serve hot for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • Use your favorite cheese variety: Gouda, baby Swiss, or cheddar are excellent melty options.
  • To save time, use pre-cooked bacon or cook bacon ahead of time.
  • The Dijon honey spread can be prepared in advance and refrigerated.
  • Optional toasting adds a delightful crunch but can be skipped for a softer sandwich.
  • Fresh chives add a mild onion flavor, but can be omitted or substituted with green onions.
