Blueberry Croissant Puff: A Deliciously Flaky and Sweet Breakfast Casserole


  • Author: Hannah

Ingredients

Scale

4 large croissants, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries (or frozen, thawed)
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1/2 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon granulated sugar (optional, for topping)


Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9-inch baking dish or a similar-sized casserole dish.

  • Arrange the croissant pieces in the prepared dish, making sure they’re spread out evenly.

  • Sprinkle the blueberries evenly over the croissant pieces.

  • In a medium mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cinnamon, and salt until fully combined.

  • Pour the egg mixture evenly over the croissants and blueberries, ensuring all the croissant pieces are soaked.

  • Drizzle the melted butter over the top and sprinkle with granulated sugar (if desired, for a crisp, sweet finish).

  • Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the top is golden and the custard is set. You may need to cover with foil for the last 10 minutes to prevent over-browning.

  • Let the Blueberry Croissant Puff cool slightly before serving.

 

  • Optionally, dust with a little extra powdered sugar or drizzle with syrup before serving.
