Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 croissants, day-old
  • 6 large eggs

  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions

  1. Cut the croissants into 1-inch cubes.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  3. Place the croissant cubes in a 9×13 inch baking dish that has been lightly greased with butter.
  4. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the croissant cubes. Press down gently to ensure the croissants are submerged.
  5. Cover the baking dish and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 4 hours.
  6. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  7. Remove the casserole from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before baking.
  8. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the casserole is puffed up, golden brown, and cooked through.
  9. Let it cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • For an extra rich flavor, use half-and-half instead of milk.
  • Add fresh berries or chocolate chips to the casserole before baking for added flavor.
  • Serve with your favorite syrup, whipped cream, or fresh fruit.
