→ For the Maple Mustard Sauce
08 -
¼ cup pure maple syrup
09 -
2 tbsp Dijon mustard
10 -
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
11 -
1 tsp garlic powder
12 -
½ tsp ground black pepper
13 -
½ tsp salt
# Instructions:
01 -
Grab a small bowl and whisk together the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt until smooth and well combined. Set this flavor bomb aside while you prepare the rest of your sandwich components.
02 -
Crack those eggs into a bowl, pour in the milk, and add a pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk everything until nicely blended. Melt the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat, then pour in your egg mixture. Cook them slowly, folding occasionally with a spatula, until you've got soft, fluffy scrambled eggs (about 3-4 minutes). Remove from heat when they're still slightly glossy.
03 -
While your eggs are cooking, warm up those turkey sausage patties according to package directions. For extra flavor and texture, you can always give them a quick sear in a hot skillet until the edges get crispy and golden brown.
04 -
Slice your croissants horizontally and give them a light toast, either in a toaster, under the broiler, or on a griddle. You want them just crisp enough on the cut side while keeping that beautiful buttery interior soft.
05 -
Time to build these beauties! Lay out the bottom halves of your toasted croissants and pile on a generous scoop of those creamy scrambled eggs. Top each with a sausage patty, then drizzle with that sweet-tangy maple mustard sauce. If you're using cheese, sprinkle it on now so it starts to melt from the heat of the eggs and sausage. Crown your creation with the top half of the croissant and get ready for breakfast bliss.
