Try our Ham & Cheese Croissant Bake with Scrambled Eggs, featuring St Ewe’s Rich Yolk eggs for an extra creamy flavour. This easy-to-make recipe serves four, combining buttery croissants with British sliced ham, melted Quicke's Cheddar, and freshly scrambled eggs. For a burst of freshness, garnish with optional chillies and chives.
Instructions
- Turn the grill on to 150-200°C and let it get to heat.
- Slice your croissants in half and open like a book (butter them if you like an extra touch of richness) and add a couple of slices of ham and grated cheddar cheese on top of both sides of the open croissant. Place them on a baking tray and pop them under the grill for the cheese to melt deliciously.
- Crack 6 St. Ewe Rich Yolk eggs into a bowl and whisk together, adding a pinch of salt and pepper. Turn your hob onto a medium-high heat, grab a non-stick frying pan and add a knob of butter – put it on the heat and let it melt all around the pan.
- Pour the egg mix into the pan and with a wooden spoon or silicone spatula, continuously stir the eggs, ensuring that you scrape the pan and keep the egg from sticking or getting too cooked too quickly. Occasionally take the hob off the heat but continue to mix and scrape – your eggs will continue to cook and this allows them to cook nice and evenly.
- Once you’re happy with a creamy texture of the eggs, take them off the heat – remember, the eggs will continue to cook after you remove it from the heat too!
- Once the cheese is melted on the croissants, remove them from the grill and plate up.
- Pop your cooked scrambled eggs into a bowl and garnish – we love freshly chopped chillies and chives.
- Grab your family or friends and tuck in! Load your croissants with the delicious scrambled eggs and feast!
