Instructions

1

Preheat and prep croissants

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Slice each croissant lengthwise across the top to create a deep pocket. Gently press down the insides to form a boat shape without tearing through the bottom.

2

Make the egg mixture

Whisk together eggs and heavy cream in a bowl. Season with garlic powder and black pepper. Stir in half of the shredded cheddar cheese.

3

Fill the boats

Place croissants on a lined baking sheet. Distribute the chopped bacon and diced bell pepper evenly into each croissant. Pour the egg mixture carefully into each boat filling nearly to the top.

4

Add cheese and bake

Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese over each filled croissant. Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes until the eggs are fully set and the cheese is bubbly and golden.

5

Rest and serve

Remove from the oven and let the croissant boats rest for 2 minutes before serving. Serve immediately while warm and the cheese is still melty.

Common mistakes

Overfilling the croissants causes the egg mixture to spill and burn on the pan
Using cold eggs straight from the fridge leads to uneven cooking
Not pressing down the inside of the croissant enough so the filling has no room to set
