Ingredients
- 4 pieces gluten-free croissants
- 8 slices bacon
- 6 pieces large eggs
- 0.25 cup milk
- 1 cup cheddar cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to warm the croissants.
Step 2
Place the gluten-free croissants on a baking sheet and set aside.
Step 3
In a large skillet, cook the bacon slices over medium heat until crispy, about 4-6 minutes. Remove from skillet and set them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
Step 4
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Step 5
Melt butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Add the egg mixture to the skillet and gently stir with a spatula until softly scrambled and creamy. Remove from heat.
Step 6
Place the croissants in the preheated oven to warm for about 5 minutes.
Step 7
Remove croissants from the oven and cut them in half horizontally.
Step 8
On each bottom half of the croissant, layer two slices of bacon, followed by a portion of scrambled eggs and a generous sprinkle of cheddar cheese.
Step 9
Top with the other half of the croissant and place all assembled croissants back in the oven for another 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.
Step 10
Serve warm and enjoy your gluten-free bacon egg and cheese croissant!
