Ingredients

• 3 eggs
• 2 tablespoons minced onion
• 3 ounces shredded Swiss cheese
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon maple syrup
• 8 thin slices deli ham
• 4 croissants, split
• 1 teaspoon everything bagel seasoning
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 0.75 cup 2% milk
• 1.5 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Whisk together butter, Dijon, onion, maple syrup, and Worcestershire in a small bowl. Evenly spread butter mixture on the cut sides of the croissants.

Step 3

Place the croissant bottom halves on a cutting board; layer on ham, folding to fit the croissant. Sprinkle cheese evenly among the croissants; place top halves on each.

Step 4

Spray a casserole dish or a cast iron skillet large enough to accommodate croissants with cooking spray. Place croissants in a single layer in the prepared pan.

Step 5

Whisk together eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and garlic powder in a medium bowl, and pour evenly over the croissants. Sprinkle each croissant with bagel seasoning. Set the dish aside for about 10 minutes.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven until croissants are golden brown and egg mixture is perfectly set, 32 to 38 minutes. Check casserole at about 25 minutes, and if croissants are getting very browned, cover with foil. Serve hot.
