How to Make Croissant Breakfast Sandwiches
- In a griddle or frying pan, over medium heat, cook eggs over-easy.

Recipe Notes
These breakfast sandwiches are so versatile. You can swap out ingredients to make them just how you like.
- Meat substitutions: bacon, ham, sausage, or meatless;
- Vegetable additions: Tomatoes, onions, mushrooms, or bell peppers;
- Cheese substitutions: Swiss cheese, Pepper Jack cheese, Colby cheese, Gouda, or Mozzarella.
Make Ahead Instructions
Breakfast can be tricky and hectic. These sandwiches are a great make-ahead meal. To make these ahead of time and save for later:
- We recommend waiting to add the avocado when you’re ready to bake them.
- When you get your sandwiches built (before you would put them under the broiler), wrap them well in plastic wrap or foil. They will be good for 1-2 days in the fridge or up to 3 weeks in the freezer.
- Then, when you need a quick breakfast, unwrap, top them with fresh avocado, and pop them in the oven.
