The story behind
This recipe takes me back to lazy weekend mornings when nobody feels like counting calories. It’s the kind of breakfast you make when you just want to sit on the couch with a giant mug of coffee and enjoy the morning. The contrast between the sweet, buttery pastry and the salty bacon is pure perfection. It makes for a wonderful mid-afternoon snack or an indulgent breakfast. Pair it with a fresh iced latte or an orange juice to balance out the richness of the cheese.
Instructions
-
1Fry the bacon strips in a skillet over medium heat until golden and crispy, then set aside on paper towels.
-
2In the same skillet, cook your egg sunny-side up, making sure the yolk stays soft and runny.
-
3Place the cheese slice directly over the egg right before turning off the heat so it melts beautifully.
-
4Slice the croissant in half and toast the inner sides slightly in a pan until warm.
-
5Assemble by layering the cheesy egg on the bottom half, topping it with the crisp bacon, a pinch of pepper, and the top bun.
