Yield: Serves 8
Ingredients:
  • 4 large croissants, cut into small pieces (about 6 cups)

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk 2%
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 teaspoon orange zest
  • powdered sugar for garnish
Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Lightly spray a 8 x 11-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

Place the croissant pieces in the baking dish. Scatter the frozen berries over the top.

Beat the cream cheese and sugar in a bowl with an electric mixer until smooth. Add in the eggs, milk, orange zest, and vanilla extract, and beat until combined.

Pour cream cheese mixture over croissants and berries. Let rest for at least 30 minutes.

Bake for 40-45 minutes or until golden and when a knife inserted in center comes out clean.
