Ingredients
- 8 eggs
- 6 slices turkey bacon
- 6 slices cheddar cheese
- 6 croissants
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 cup half and half
- Salt
- Pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Slice the croissants horizontally and place them on a baking sheet. Toast in the oven for 7-8 minutes until golden.
- In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the turkey bacon until crispy, about 3-4 minutes on each side.
- Whisk together eggs and half and half until smooth. Melt butter in a non-stick pan over medium-low heat, then add the egg mixture. Stir gently until soft curds form; avoid overcooking.
- Assemble the sandwiches: layer cheddar cheese on the bottom of each croissant, followed by turkey bacon and scrambled eggs. Top with the other half of the croissant.
- Place assembled sandwiches back in the oven for about 12 minutes to melt the cheese and heat through.
- Let rest for 2 minutes before slicing diagonally and serving.
