Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and gather your ingredients.
Cut the croissants into halves or thirds and layer them in the greased baking dish.
Whisk together the eggs, milk (or cream), salt, garlic salt, and fresh rosemary.
Dip the croissant pieces into the egg mixture and return them to the baking dish, layering with deli meat and cheese.
In a separate bowl, mix melted butter, honey, and fresh herbs to make the honey butter sauce.
Pour the honey butter mixture evenly over the layered croissant bake.
Bake for 15-20 minutes until bubbly and golden, basting halfway through if desired.
Let cool for a few minutes before serving warm.
