Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 2 flaky croissants (fresh or day-old)
- 4 slices smoked turkey bacon
- 4 large eggs
- 2 slices plant-based cheese
- 1 tablespoon plant-based butter
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
- 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
- Fresh herbs (chives or parsley), optional
Instructions
- Cook the smoked turkey bacon: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the smoked turkey bacon. Cook each side until crispy and golden, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove and set aside on paper towels to drain excess oil.
- Prepare the eggs: Using the same skillet, melt a small pat of plant-based butter. Crack the eggs into the pan and lightly whisk them with a splash of vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), salt, and pepper. Gently scramble until soft and creamy but fully cooked, about 3 to 5 minutes.
- Toast the croissants: Slice the croissants in half horizontally. On a clean skillet or toaster, lightly toast the halves until golden and slightly crisp to enhance their buttery texture.
- Assemble the sandwich: On the bottom croissant half, layer the scrambled eggs, followed by the crispy smoked turkey bacon, and then a slice of plant-based cheese. Top with fresh herbs if desired. Finish by placing the top croissant half over the filling.
- Serve warm: Serve the Croissant Breakfast Sandwich with Smoked Turkey Bacon immediately for the best melt and texture, or wrap it up for a delicious breakfast on the go.
Notes
- Cook smoked turkey bacon first to use flavorful drippings for cooking eggs.
- Keep eggs soft and creamy by not overcooking them for best sandwich texture.
- Lightly toast croissants to prevent sogginess and add crunch.
- Use fresh croissants for the flakiest and most delicious sandwich.
- Customize fillings by adding greens, tomatoes, or your favorite natural sauces for extra flair.
