Ingredients
Scale
Sandwich
- 4 large croissants, sliced in half
- 8 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 8 slices bacon or breakfast sausage patties, cooked
- 4 slices cheddar or Swiss cheese
Maple Mustard Sauce
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
Instructions
- Make the Maple Mustard Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard and pure maple syrup until smooth and set aside.
- Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs with the milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined and lightly frothy.
- Cook the Scrambled Eggs: Melt the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are just set and fluffy, taking care not to overcook.
- Toast the Croissants: Lightly toast the croissant halves if desired to add a slight crispness and warmth.
- Assemble the Sandwiches: Spread the prepared maple mustard sauce generously on the bottom half of each croissant. Layer on the scrambled eggs, then top with the cooked bacon or sausage and a slice of cheese.
- Finish and Serve: Place the top halves of the croissants over the fillings and serve the sandwiches warm, allowing the cheese to melt slightly from the heat of the eggs and meat.
Notes
- For a vegetarian option, replace the bacon or sausage with a fried egg or sautéed mushrooms.
- These sandwiches can be wrapped and kept warm for short periods, making them ideal for brunch gatherings or meal prepping.
