Scrambled Egg Croissant Sandwiches Ingredients:
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk or cream
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or cheese of choice)
- 2 croissants, sliced in half horizontally
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh chives or parsley for garnish (optional)
How to make Scrambled Egg Croissant Sandwiches:
Prepare the Ingredients: Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them with milk or cream until well combined. Season with salt and pepper.
Shred the cheese and set aside.
Cook the Scrambled Eggs: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and melt the butter.
Pour in the egg mixture and let it sit undisturbed for a few seconds until it begins to set around the edges.
Gently stir with a spatula, pushing the eggs from the edges towards the center. Continue until the eggs are softly scrambled and slightly runny.
Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the eggs and let it melt slightly.
Prepare the Croissants: Lightly toast the croissant halves in a toaster or on a dry skillet until golden brown and crispy.
Assemble the Sandwiches: Spoon the scrambled eggs evenly onto the bottom halves of the croissants.
Top with fresh chives or parsley if desired.
Close with the top halves of the croissants.
Recipe Notes:
For added flavor, consider mixing in other ingredients like cooked bacon, ham, or sautéed vegetables into the scrambled eggs.
If you prefer a more decadent sandwich, spread a thin layer of herb cream cheese on the croissant halves before adding the eggs.
Be careful not to overcook the eggs; they should be soft and creamy, as they will continue to cook slightly once removed from the heat.
