Step 1
Cook sausage patties in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat, 3 minutes per side until browned and cooked through.
Step 2
Transfer sausage to a plate, then reduce heat to medium and add 0.5 tbsp butter to the same skillet.
Step 3
Crack eggs into a bowl, whisk with salt and pepper, then pour into the skillet and stir gently until curds form, about 4 minutes.
Step 4
While eggs cook, slice croissants in half horizontally and spread cut sides with dijon mustard.
Step 5
Toast croissant halves cut-side down in the same skillet over medium heat, 2 minutes per side, until golden and crispy.
Step 6
Layer bottom croissant with sausage, warm scrambled eggs, cheddar slice, and fresh thyme, then cap with top half.
