Instructions

Preparation: Gather all ingredients and have your croissants sliced in half ready for assembling the sandwiches.
Heat Olive Oil: Warm the 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Cook Eggs: Lightly beat the eggs and pour into the hot skillet. Whisk continuously while cooking for about 3 to 5 minutes until eggs are just set but still soft. Stir in the half and half, then season with kosher salt and black pepper to taste.
Assemble Sandwiches: Place a generous spoonful of the scrambled eggs onto the bottom half of each halved croissant. Add a slice of ham and top with a piece of cheddar cheese. Cap with the top halves of the croissants to form sandwiches.
Wrap and Freeze: Wrap each sandwich tightly in plastic wrap to preserve freshness and place them in the freezer. They can be stored for several weeks for convenient grab-and-go breakfasts.
Reheat and Serve: When ready to eat, remove the plastic wrap and rewrap the sandwich in a paper towel. Microwave for 1 to 2 minutes until heated through and the cheese is melted. Serve immediately and enjoy a warm, hearty breakfast.

Notes

For a richer flavor, substitute olive oil with butter when cooking the eggs.
You can customize the protein by using turkey or crispy bacon instead of ham.
Use any melting cheese like Swiss or Gouda to vary the flavors.
Regular-sized croissants can be cut into quarters to yield a similar portion size.
These sandwiches freeze well and can be kept in the freezer for up to 1 month.
Microwave times may vary depending on your appliance; adjust accordingly to ensure the sandwich is heated through.
