Cook the bacon: Fry or bake bacon until crispy, then chop into small pieces.
Prep the croissants While the bacon is cooking tear croissants into rustic chunks and scatter them in a greased 9×13 casserole dish.
Make the custard: Whisk together the eggs, half & half, blended cottage cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Sprinkle bacon evenly over the croissants.
Slowly pour the custard all over the croissants and bacon.
Let it soak for 10 minutes.
Sprinkle shredded cheese over the top.
Bake at 350°F for 35–40 minutes, or until golden, puffed, and the center is set.
Right out of the oven, drizzle generously with hot honey and finish with flaky salt.
Cut into squares, garnish with green onions, and serve warm.
