Ingredients
Ingredients List:
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup milk
- ¼ cup Coombs Family Farms Organic Maple Syrup
- ½ tsp Simply Organic Vanilla Extract
- ¼ tsp Tacoma Boys Ground Cinnamon
- 4 croissants, sliced lengthwise
- Raspberries, to serve
- Powdered sugar, to serve
Preparation
Mix the Eggs & Milk
Add the eggs, milk, maple syrup, vanilla, and cinnamon to a 9×9 inch baking dish. Whisk to beat the eggs and combine all ingredients.
Soak the Croissants
Place the sliced croissants in the egg mixture, pressing down and flipping to submerge. Then arrange at an angle so they all fit. Let sit for at least 20 minutes or in the fridge overnight.
Prepare to Bake
When ready to bake and if the french toast was in the fridge, remove and allow to come to room temperature first, about 1-2 hours before baking. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Bake and Enjoy
Cover the baking dish with foil, then transfer to the oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes or until the liquid has set and the croissants are slightly crisp and golden.
