Croissant Breakfast Casserole

This decadent breakfast dish is one that dreams are made of. Flakey pieces of croissant are slow cooked with sharp cheese and sweet caramelized onions in a rich custard filling. A little bit of Dijon adds a slight tanginess that pairs well with the cheese. If desired, double down on the ham and cheese croissant vibes by adding a half cup of chopped ham in Step 3.
