A breakfast croissant sandwich — egg, cheese, and bacon (or sausage) on a buttery croissant. Like a McDonald's bacon-egg-cheese McMuffin but on a croissant. Brunch perfection.

Instructions
- 1
Cook 4 bacon strips in a skillet until crisp. Drain. (Or use sausage patties.)
- 2
Slice 4 large butter croissants in half horizontally. Lightly warm under broiler — don't fully toast (already crispy).
- 3
Make eggs: fry 4 eggs over easy in 1 tablespoon butter (or scramble 6 eggs). Season with salt and pepper.
- 4
Build each croissant: bottom half with 1 slice American cheese (or Swiss), the cooked egg (residual heat melts cheese), 1 strip crumbled bacon (or sausage patty), more cheese if you want.
- 5
Optional: drizzle with hot sauce, sliced tomato, sliced avocado.
- 6
Close croissant. Press gently. Serve immediately with coffee. The combination of buttery croissant + cheese + bacon + egg is unbeatable.
