Steps

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200 °C) (200°C (400 °F)). Line a large baking sheet with foil.

  2. Add the bacon to the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-14 minutes until crispy.

  3. Remove the bacon from the pan onto a towel-lined plate, pat dry, and dice into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.

  4. Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (180 °C) (175°C (350 °F)). Dice each of the 8 croissants into 5-6 pieces.

  5. Grease the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking pan. Add the croissant pieces and toast in the oven for 10-15 minutes.

  6. While the croissants are toasting, in a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, 1/2 cup of white cheddar cheese, and 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese.

  7. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the toasted croissants in the baking pan.

  8. Top the mixture with the diced bacon, the remaining 1/2 cup of white cheddar, the remaining 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese, and the diced chives.

  9. Choose your baking method: either bake immediately, or cover the pan and place it in the fridge overnight to bake the next day.

  10. Bake at 350°F (180 °C) (175°C (350 °F)) for 50-55 minutes until the eggs are set and the top is golden brown.
