croissandwich

Flaky layered sandwich

A croissandwich is a sandwich made with a croissant as the bread, typically filled with breakfast items like eggs, cheese, and bacon or sausage.

The term was trademarked by Burger King for their breakfast menu item, but has come to describe any croissant-based sandwich: I grabbed a croissandwich on my way to work.
