Prepare ingredients
Slice tomato and wash lettuce leaves. Cut croissants in half horizontally.
Form beef patties
Divide ground beef into 4 equal portions and shape into thin patties slightly larger than croissants.
Heat the pan
Place a large pan over medium-high heat and add olive oil.
Cook the patties
Add patties to hot pan and season with salt and pepper. Cook 2-3 minutes per side until browned and cooked through.
Add cheese
Place a slice of cheddar on each patty in the last minute of cooking to melt.
Toast croissants
Place croissant halves cut-side down in the same pan for 1-2 minutes until golden and slightly crisp.
Assemble burgers
Layer lettuce, tomato slices, and two cheese-topped patties on each croissant bottom. Top with the other half.
Storage
Best eaten fresh. Croissants become soggy when stored.
