Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 1.75 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 4 large Eggs
• 6 slices Cooked bacon strips
• 4 slices Cheddar cheese, sliced
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the mozzarella cheese and cream cheese. Microwave on high for 1 minute, stir, and then microwave for another 30 seconds until melted and combined.

Step 3

Add the almond flour and baking powder to the melted cheese mixture. Stir until well mixed. Add 1 of the eggs and continue mixing until a dough forms.

Step 4

Divide the dough into 4 equal parts. Roll each piece into a ball, then flatten into a circle around 1/4 inch thick.

Step 5

Place the dough circles on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges start turning golden.

Step 6

While the croissants bake, whisk the remaining 3 eggs in a bowl with salt and pepper.

Step 7

Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the eggs and scramble until fully cooked, then remove from heat.

Step 8

Remove the croissants from the oven. On each croissant, place a slice of cheddar cheese, a few spoonfuls of scrambled eggs, and 1.5 slices of cooked bacon. Top with the other half of each croissant.

Step 9

Return the assembled croissants to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.

Step 10

Serve warm and enjoy your low-carb bacon, egg, and cheese croissants!
