Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Slice the butter croissants into 1-inch pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Pour the egg mixture over the croissant pieces and gently toss to coat. Let it sit for about 10 minutes to allow the croissants to absorb the liquid.
While the croissants are soaking, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces.
Add the crumbled bacon, grated Gruyere cheese, and chopped chives to the croissant mixture. Gently fold to combine.
Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the custard is set.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your savory croissant bread pudding!
