I make these when I’m hosting brunch or just treating myself on a weekend morning. They’re easy to throw together and taste like something you’d get at a fancy café (but without the price tag 💸). Let’s make ‘em!
Ingredients
- 4 large buttery croissants 🥐
- 4 slices cooked bacon or deli ham 🥓
- 4 slices Swiss or cheddar cheese 🧀
- 2 eggs, fried or scrambled (optional but delicious) 🍳
For the Maple-Dijon Spread:
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp pure maple syrup 🍁
- 1 tsp mayonnaise (for creaminess)
- Pinch of black pepper
Instructions
Make the spread: In a small bowl, mix Dijon mustard, maple syrup, mayo, and pepper. Taste and adjust the sweetness or tang if needed.
Prep the croissants: Slice the croissants in half. Toast them lightly in a skillet or oven for extra crunch.
Assemble the sandwich: Spread the maple-Dijon mixture on the bottom half of each croissant.
Layer on your cheese, bacon or ham, and egg if using. Top with the other croissant half.
If you want that melty goodness, wrap the sandwich in foil and heat in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 5–7 minutes.
Serve warm and enjoy that perfect sweet-savory combo!
Tips & Variations
- Use turkey or vegetarian bacon for a lighter option.
- Add baby spinach, arugula, or a slice of tomato for a fresh twist 🥬🍅
- Want extra heat? Mix a little hot sauce into the spread 🌶️
- These can be made ahead and reheated—great for meal prep!
Storage
Wrap any extras in foil or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or toaster oven to keep the croissants crispy.
