Croissant French Toast
This Croissant French Toast is a twist (pun intended) on the classic breakfast dish!
Ingredients
- 4 egg large
- 3/4 cup milk whole
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract pure
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 4 Croissant halved lengthwise, large, day-old
- butter as needed
- powdered sugar for garnish, or maple syrup
- fresh berries for garnish
Instructions
- Make the egg mixture by whisking the eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl. Mix until smooth.
- Pour the custard into a shallow dish. Soak each side of the croissants in the mixture for 30 seconds to 1 minute so they can absorb the liquid.
- In a large nonstick pan, melt butter over medium heat to grease the pan.
- Shake off excess liquid from each croissant and cook them undisturbed for about 2 to 4 minutes on each side. They should be golden brown.
- Serve immediately with fresh berries and maple syrup or powdered sugar on top.
