How to Make Blt On Croissant

  1. Preheat your grill or toaster oven to medium-high heat.
  2. Cook 4-6 slices of rindless shortcut bacon (or trimmed bacon rashers) in a large frying pan over medium heat until crispy. Remove bacon and set aside, reserving about 1 tablespoon of bacon grease.
  3. While the bacon cooks, prepare the aioli: In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1 clove minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  4. Toast the croissants: Cut the croissants in half. Place cut-side down on a baking sheet and toast under the grill for 30-60 seconds, or until lightly golden.
  5. Spread a generous amount of aioli onto the bottom half of each croissant.
  6. Layer 2-3 slices of crispy bacon, 2-3 slices of tomato, and a few leaves of lettuce on top of the aioli.
  7. Top with the other half of the croissant.
