Step 1: Prepare Ingredients

Slice fresh tomatoes and mozzarella cheese into thin, even pieces. Gather fresh basil leaves and a freshly baked croissant.

Drizzle some extra virgin olive oil and balsamic glaze over the layered ingredients. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper. Place the top half of the croissant over the filling.
