Ingredients
  

  • 6 large croissants torn into pieces
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries or frozen, thawed
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • Powdered sugar for serving (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
  • Add half of the egg mixture to the cream cheese and mix until fully combined.
  • In the greased baking dish, layer half of the torn croissant pieces, followed by half of the blueberries.
  • Pour half of the cream cheese mixture over the croissants and blueberries, then repeat the layering with the remaining croissants, blueberries, and cream cheese mixture.
  • Pour the remaining egg mixture evenly over the top of the casserole, ensuring all croissant pieces are soaked.
  • Let the casserole sit for about 15 minutes to absorb the liquid.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is set.
  • Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.

Notes

For a richer flavor, consider adding a splash of lemon juice to the blueberries.
