Ingredients
- 2 pieces Low fat croissants
- 4 large Eggs
- 0.25 cup Skim milk
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Low-fat cheese (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh chives (optional)
- 0 as needed Cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to warm the croissants.
Step 2
Cut each croissant in half horizontally and place them on a baking sheet. Once the oven is ready, warm the croissants for about 5 minutes until they are just slightly crisp and warm.
Step 3
In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and add the skim milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
Step 4
Spray a non-stick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-low heat.
Step 5
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, allowing it to set slightly before gently stirring with a spatula to create soft curds.
Step 6
Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until the eggs are cooked through but still soft and creamy. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
Step 7
If using, stir in the low-fat cheese until melted.
Step 8
Remove the croissants from the oven. Place an equal portion of the scrambled eggs onto the bottom half of each croissant.
Step 9
Sprinkle chopped chives over the eggs, if using, then top with the other half of the croissant.
Step 10
Serve warm and enjoy your low-fat croissant with scrambled eggs!
