• ½ tablespoon olive oil (plus extra for cooking)

• 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar

Instructions:

1. Warm the Croissants
   Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Place the croissants in the oven for a couple of minutes to warm them, especially if they're not freshly baked. This step helps restore their crispiness.

2. Prepare the Avocado
   In a bowl, mash the avocado with a fork. Season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. You can add a pinch of chili flakes or paprika for a touch of spice. Taste and adjust the seasoning.

3. Make the Shallot Vinaigrette
   In another bowl, whisk together Dijon mustard, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and minced shallots. Add the baby spinach leaves and toss to coat. Set aside.

4. Prepare the Scrambled Eggs
   Crack the eggs into a medium bowl, whisk until well mixed, and season with salt and pepper.
   Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a medium pan over medium-low heat. Pour in the eggs and stir gently with a spatula. Keep stirring until the eggs are mostly set but still creamy.
   Remove from heat and fold in the crumbled goat cheese.

5. Assemble the Sandwiches
   Slice open the croissants, keeping them hinged.
   Spread mashed avocado on the bottom halves.
   Add the dressed spinach, then top with scrambled eggs and goat cheese.
   Garnish with fresh herbs like dill or chives if desired.

6. Serve Immediately
   Enjoy the sandwiches warm for the best taste and texture.
