Ingredients

  • 10 Marketside All Butter Croissants
  • 8 ounces cream cheese room temperature
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 10 large strawberries about a pint, sliced
  • 1/2 cup blueberries
  • 6 eggs
  • 1 cup half and half
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375F.
  • Spray a 9x13 baking dish with nonstick spray. Set aside.
  • Slice each croissant length-wise, being careful not to cut all the way through.
  • Cream together the cream cheese and sugar.
  • Take a spoon and spread approximately 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture onto the inside of each croissant. Place strawberry slices (about 1 strawberry per croissant) onto the cream cheese and close the croissant. Repeat with all 10 croissants.
  • Layer the croissants into the dish, packing them tightly.
  • Sprinkle the blueberries throughout the dish.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, half and half, vanilla, cinnamon, and maple syrup,
  • Pour egg mixture slowly over the croissants, making sure to get some in every nook and cranny.
  • Cover and refrigerate up to 8 hours.
  • When ready to bake, cook COVERED for 25-35 minutes or until set. If you'd like your croissants to be extra toasty, you can broil slightly, but watch carefully so you don't burn the recipe.
  • Serve with more maple syrup and fresh fruit.
  • Enjoy!
