Ingredients
  

For the Bake
  • 6 large Croissants Preferably day-old for best texture
  • 1 cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips Can substitute with fresh berries or bananas
  • 4 Large Eggs Essential for structure and binding
  • 1 cup Whole Milk Almond milk can be used for a dairy-free option
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar Provides sweetness
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Opt for pure vanilla for best results
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt Balances sweetness
  • Powdered Sugar Optional for dusting before serving

Equipment

  • 9x13 inch baking dish
  • Mixing Bowl
  • whisk
  • spatula

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. Tear day-old croissants into bite-sized pieces and evenly distribute them across the greased baking dish.
  3. Sprinkle semi-sweet chocolate chips over the torn croissant pieces in the baking dish.
  4. In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.
  5. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the croissant pieces and chocolate chips.
  6. Gently press down on the croissant pieces with a spatula to help them absorb the egg mixture.
  7. Let the assembled bake sit for 10 minutes at room temperature to absorb moisture.
  8. Bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
  9. Once baked, let it cool for a few minutes, slice, and serve warm. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.
