Instructions

How to Make

Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Prepare Bacon (optional): If you're adding candied bacon, cook it until crispy, chop it into bits, and set it aside.
Slice Croissants: Carefully slice each croissant lengthwise, keeping them attached at the hinge.
Whisk Eggs: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until homogenous.
Scramble Eggs: In a skillet over medium-low heat, melt the unsalted butter and scramble the egg mixture for about 5-6 minutes.
Stuff Croissants: Fill each croissant with the scrambled eggs, fresh kale, chopped bacon (if using), and cheddar cheese.
Bake: Arrange the stuffed croissants on the baking sheet, brush the tops with honey, and sprinkle with Everything but bagel seasoning. Bake for 8-10 minutes.
Serve: Allow the croissants to cool slightly before serving warm.
