Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Sausage or Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage or bacon until browned and crispy, about 4-5 minutes for bacon or 6-8 minutes for sausage. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Egg

    In the same skillet, crack the egg and cook until the whites are set, flipping halfway through if desired for an over-hard egg, approximately 4-5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Toast the Croissant

    While the egg is cooking, slice the croissant in half and lightly toast it in the toaster or on a skillet until golden brown.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Assemble the Croissant

    Layer the bottom half of the toasted croissant with the sausage or bacon, followed by the over-hard egg, and then top with a slice of cheddar cheese. Place the top half of the croissant on top.

Serving

  1. 5

    Serve with Sides
