Put a croissant in the oven or toaster oven at 350 degrees F (175 C) for 5 minutes to heat it up.
Good croissants are very buttery and flaky, so use a napkin to avoid making a mess and keep your fingers grease-free.
Try to do this on a plate if you can to catch crumbs.
This method works well to avoid a mess if you don’t have a napkin.
This is the least messy way to eat a croissant and to keep your hands clean.
Don’t hold the croissant in the coffee too long, or it will become soggy and fall apart.
You can still dunk the croissant in coffee with butter on it if you want.
Don’t cut the croissant all the way through. Think of it like a hot dog bun and leave it connected on one side so that it can hold all the fruit and whipped cream easily.
You can add fruit like strawberries to this pairing as well for a variation.
You can drizzle honey on the cheese to create a delicious sweet and savory croissant.
Keep an eye on the butter or oil to make sure it doesn’t start to burn. Lower the heat if it starts to smoke.
Add some shredded cheddar cheese to the eggs for an extra-cheesy breakfast sandwich.
Substitute 1 fried egg for the scrambled eggs if you want.
Try to use a fresh-baked croissant from a bakery so you end up with a crispy and fresh breakfast sandwich.
Don’t put the top half of the croissant on the sandwich yet. It will toast better if you leave it off. You can substitute bacon for the ham if you prefer.
Remember that baking time for different ovens can vary. Set the timer to 10 minutes but make sure to check on the sandwich every few minutes to keep it from burning.
