Little Smokie Croissant Breakfast Casserole
Breakfast casseroles are very popular at our house. This casserole is assembled the night before and refrigerated overnight. Perfect for an easy weekday breakfast or overnight guests. We also love to have this for dinner; you can’t beat breakfast for dinner!!!
This Little Smokie Croissant Breakfast Casserole was a huge hit! How could it not be? Buttery croissants, cheddar cheese, little smokies, eggs and milk. YUM! This recipe calls for a package of mini-croissants. I found the croissants in the bakery section at the grocery store. They came in a 10-oz package.

Can this recipe be made the night before?
yes
Really good. I divide the recipe in half, using 2 eggs instead of 5. Freeze the remaining croissants and little smokies for future use. Even half a recipe is generous, and a 9×13-inch pan will work. Thanks for a go-to recipe my family enjoys.
Croissant dough or prepared croissants?
Prepared croissants – I bought them in the bakery section at the grocery store
