breakfast pastry

Danish or croissant

A breakfast pastry is a sweet baked good eaten in the morning, typically with coffee or tea.

The category includes croissants, Danish pastries, muffins, scones, and similar items—distinguished from bread by their sweetness and richness, and from dessert pastries by when they're eaten.

I grabbed a breakfast pastry on my way to work.
