Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Place the dairy-free croissants on a baking sheet and warm them in the preheated oven for about 5 minutes or until they are heated through and slightly crispy.
While the croissants are warming, crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl and add the almond milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Allow it to cook undisturbed for about 1 minute, until the edges start to set.
Using a spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges toward the center, forming large, soft curds. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny. They will continue to firm up from residual heat.
Remove the skillet from the heat and fold in the chopped chives.
Slice the warmed croissants in half horizontally and place a generous serving of the scrambled eggs on the bottom half of each croissant.
Top with the other croissant half and serve immediately.
