Equipment

  • 9x13 casserole baking dish

Ingredients
  

  • 5-6 large croissants fresh or a few days old
  • 5 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk warm
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 4 tablespoon melted butter
  • cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 2 cups blueberries or mixed berries plus more to garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and butter a 9"x13” casserole baking dish
  • Cut croissant into small pieces (about 1-1.5” cubes) and place in dish
  • In a bowl, whisk together eggs, warm milk, cream, butter, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt
  • Pour the mixture over croissants, pressing down with a spatula to absorb. Add blueberries on top and push them between the croissant layers. Let sit for 15 minutes (even better overnight!).
  • Bake for 45 minutes until set and golden, and enjoy this warm.

Notes

Berries and substitutions: It's best to use blueberries and blackberries in the casserole. Strawberries and raspberries should be used as garnish. Can be made ahead and stored in the fridge overnight. Store leftovers in an airtight container for 2-3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat cut portions in air fryer or oven for best results.
