A blueberry breakfast casserole is a great change of pace from traditional breakfast routines. It’s so easy to make that it requires very little hands-on time and it’s also a good excuse to use up dry croissants. Leftover croissant casserole means getting your money’s worth out of those flakey, buttery rolls.
What is Blueberry Croissant French Toast Bake?
This sweet croissant breakfast casserole is a mixture of cubed croissants, blueberries, eggs, and milk. Similar to a regular french toast bake but with more freshness and buttery richness thanks to the simple change in the ingredients list. Every bite is bursting with flavor and so tasty!
Is this French Toast Bake Soggy?
Is this French Toast Bake Soggy?This recipe is NOT soggy! I opted for less eggs and milk, so the mixture is absorbed into the bread and the result is a softer french toast bake with crispy edges. It’s not dry, but again, it’s not soggy like other French Toast bakes can be.
Ingredients for Blueberry Croissant French Toast Bake
Ingredients for Blueberry Croissant French Toast Bake-Croissants: We need 4 large croissants that have been cut into cubes. This will help to make it easier for serving than leaving them whole.
-Blueberries: With 1 cup of fresh or frozen blueberries we can have a tasty dish. We can also use mixed berries for a nice change of pace.
-Milk: 1 1/2 cups of milk (dairy or almond milk) works great to stretch the eggs over everything and adds a creamy texture.
-Eggs: We need 2 eggs to bind this french toast bake together and give it that slight eggy flavor we expect.
-Vanilla: Just 1 teaspoon of vanilla is enough to make a difference in the flavors of this casserole. Use high-quality vanilla for an even better flavor.
