Slice the croissant in half horizontally and toast in a dry pan over medium heat until golden and crisp.
Remove the toasted croissant and add avocado oil to the same pan.
Place the ham slices in the pan for 1 minute per side until slightly browned and warm, then set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the whole egg, egg whites, sea salt, and black pepper.
Pour the egg mixture into the pan over medium-low heat, stirring gently until soft, fluffy curds form.
Fold the fresh baby spinach into the eggs during the last 30 seconds of cooking until just wilted.
Assemble the sandwich by placing the warm ham on the bottom croissant half, topping with the scrambled eggs, and closing with the top half.
