Ingredients

  • 4 whole Croissants (a Rounder Shape Is Best)
  • 3 large eggs
  • ¼ cup half and half
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons Butter, For Frying And Serving
  • Warm Syrup, For Serving
  • Strawberries, For Serving (optional)

Instructions

  • Split the croissants in half through the middle.
  • In a bowl, whisk together eggs, half-and-half, cinnamon, and vanilla. Dunk each croissant half into the mixture so that it's fully coated. Set pieces aside on a plate.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over low heat, then melt a small amount of butter. Add as many pieces as will fit, cut side down, then increase the heat very slightly (don't go above medium-low).
  • Allow the toast to cook on the first side for 3 to 4 minutes. Move it around in the skillet a bit to make sure it doesn't burn. When it's deep golden brown on the surface, flip it to the other side and let it cook for another 2 minutes or so.
  • Remove from the pan and cook the rest of the croissant halves.
  • Serve a top and bottom piece together with butter, warm syrup, strawberries, and whipped cream. Enjoy!
