Crack Croissant Breakfast Bake
Buttery croissants, crispy bacon, cheddar, and creamy ranch eggs baked into a savory breakfast casserole you can prep the night before.
- 3 large bakery-style croissants 5-inch each
- 1 lb bacon
- 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup half-and-half
- 2 Tbsp ranch dressing mix
Cut each croissant into 10–12 pieces. Place in a greased 9x9-inch deep baking dish.
Fry bacon over medium-high heat until crispy. Drain well.
Sprinkle bacon over croissants, then top with cheddar, tucking cheese into gaps.
Whisk eggs, half-and-half, and ranch dressing mix until smooth.
Pour egg mixture over croissants, press down to submerge. Cover and refrigerate 8–24 hours.
Bake covered at 325ºF for 35 minutes, then uncovered for 25 minutes until set and golden.
Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
