croissant sandwich

Flaky layered filling

A sandwich made with a croissant as the bread, typically split horizontally and filled with breakfast items like eggs, cheese, and bacon, or with lunch fare like ham and turkey.

The buttery, flaky pastry distinguishes it from sandwiches on regular bread: I grabbed a croissant sandwich from the café on my way to work.
