Croissant Baked French Toast
Ingredients
- 6 butter croissants, cut into 2cm-thick slices
- 8 large eggs
- 2 cups cream
- 1 cup milk
- 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 Teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ Teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ Teaspoon ground nutmeg
- Salt
- Optional: berries, carmelized bananas or apples (see note below)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180ºC.
- Arrange the croissant slices in six mini cocottes, inserting a few slices of banana between each layer and finishing with the bread.
- In a large bowl, whisk the remaining French Toast ingredients until blended but not too bubbly. Pour the mixture over the bread slices, making sure all are covered evenly with the milk-egg mixture.
- Bake for 10–15 minutes or until the pudding has puffed up slightly and is golden brown.
- Spoon optional berries, carmelized bananas or apples* onto each dessert and dust with icing sugar before serving.
Notes
- For carmelized bananas or apples, combine the butter and sugar in a saucepan and stir over medium heat until golden brown. Add the sliced bananas or diced apples and stir through for 5 minutes until caramelized.
