Egg Ham Cheese Croissants

At home or on the go, make-ahead, freezer-friendly Egg Ham Cheese Croissants are a simple way to make a full breakfast the entire family will love.  

We are big breakfast eaters at our house. On those days when I just didn’t have enough time in the morning to make myself a real breakfast, I would stop at a local fast food place or coffee shop to pick up a breakfast sandwich. Now I make my own Egg Ham Cheese Croissants.

Egg Ham Cheese Croissants make-ahead/freezer friendly 

When I know that I have a couple of busy weeks ahead of me, I will spend some time on Sunday afternoon to do some meal prep. These tasty breakfast sandwiches are easy to make ahead of time.

1. I make a dozen of these breakfast sandwiches, save a few for breakfast the next morning and freeze the rest.
2. I simply let them cool completely, wrap them individually in plastic wrap, put them all into a large zip-top bag, and pop them into the freezer.
3. When I’m ready to eat one, I unwrap it, place it on a paper plate or microwave oven-safe plate and microwave it for 15-20 seconds. Then I’m ready to grab my coffee, my briefcase, my bag, and my sandwich and jump in the car. It’s that easy!

And I’ll let you in on a little secret…I’ve even made these for friends for Sunday brunch and they didn’t even know that I made them ahead of time. I just thawed them on a cookie sheet in the refrigerator and warmed them in the oven when they arrived. Easy and it was my little secret!

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°
2. Add olive oil to a large non-stick stove-top pan or skillet and turn the heat on medium low.
3. Crack eggs into a large bowl and beat in the half-n-half.
4. Pour eggs into the pan and let it sit for just a few moments.
5. With a spatula, move eggs around in the pan.
6. When the eggs are set, salt and pepper them to taste.
7. Place them on a large plate or in a large bowl and let them cool completely.
8. While the eggs are cooling, line the sliced croissant onto a cookie sheet.
9. Mix the Dijon mustard and mayonnaise in a small bowl.
10. To assemble the sandwiches, add a small amount of the mustard/mayo to one side of each croissant (I use the back of a small spoon to smear the sauce onto the croissant slice).
11. Place a spoonful of the scrambled eggs on top of the sauce.
12. Add a half slice of ham and a half slice of cheese and repeat until all of the sandwiches are made.
13. Place the cookie sheet into the oven and bake, uncovered, for 10-12 minutes, until the cheese begins to melt.
14. Serve immediately or let them cool completely and freeze.

Notes

To freeze the sandwiches:

1. Make sure they are completely cooled and at room temperature.
2. Wrap each croissant individually with plastic wrap.
3. Place them all into a large zip-top bag and place them in the freezer.
