Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large croissants, torn into bite-sized pieces
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 4 large eggs
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
- Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
- Spread the torn croissant pieces evenly in the prepared baking dish.
- Scatter the strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries evenly over the croissants.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until smooth.
- Pour the custard mixture evenly over the croissants and berries, pressing down gently to soak the bread.
- Cover the dish with foil and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight to allow the croissants to absorb the custard.
- Remove the foil and bake uncovered for 35-40 minutes, or until the custard is set and the top is golden brown.
- Let cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.
Notes
For extra richness, serve with a drizzle of maple syrup or a dollop of whipped cream.
