heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Spray a large casserole dish with non-stick baking spray.

In a large mixing bowl, add 6 large eggs.

Add 1/4 cup white granulated sugar and 1/4 cup pure maple syrup to the eggs.

Add 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon salt to the mixture.

Whisk the mixture together until the eggs are well beaten and smooth.

Add 1 cup whole milk and 1 cup cream to the egg mixture and mix well.

Slice each croissant in half using a serrated knife.

Layer the croissant halves into the casserole dish, soaking them in the custard as you go.

Sprinkle fresh berries (raspberries, blueberries, strawberries) between the layers of croissants.

Pour any remaining custard over the assembled croissants and berries.

Cover the casserole with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes until golden brown and set.

Remove from the oven and add dabs of butter on top, if desired.

Serve hot with extra maple syrup, whipped cream, and more fresh berries.
