- 1 cup sliced strawberries π
- Β½ cup blueberries π«
- Β½ cup raspberries π
- 1 block (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened π§
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar π₯
- 3/4 cup milk π₯
- 2 large eggs π₯π₯
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract π¦
Instructions:

Spread the broken croissant pieces evenly in the prepared baking dish. Distribute all the berries evenly over the croissants. This will ensure every bite has a burst of berry goodness. π₯ππ«π - Make the Cream Cheese Mixture
In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until it becomes fluffy. Gradually add the sugar, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract, mixing until the ingredients are well combined and smooth. π§π₯π₯π₯π¦ - Combine and Chill
Pour the cream cheese mixture evenly over the croissants and berries, ensuring all pieces are well-coated. Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes or up to 14 hours. This step allows the croissants to soak up the creamy mixture, enhancing the dish’s flavor. βοΈ - Bake
Remove the cover from the dish and bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the bake is golden brown and set. The croissants should be crispy on top while the inside remains soft and creamy. β³ - Serve
Serve the Berry Croissant Bake warm, and if you like, top it with powdered sugar or a drizzle of syrup. This dish is perfect for a special breakfast or a leisurely brunch. Enjoy the rich, fruity flavors and the satisfying texture! π½οΈβ¨
