Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 6 large croissants
- 3 eggs (you need 1 whole egg plus 2 yolks)
- 1 cup milk
- ¼ cup sugar
- 1 lemon, zested
- butter for pan
Instructions
- Take the croissants and slice each in half, so you have a lot of surface area.
- In a casserole dish, add the 1 egg plus 2 egg yolks. Add the milk, sugar, lemon zest, and whisk with a fork or whisk until well combined.
- Take a griddle or skillet and heat over medium-high heat until hot. Add butter to the pan and swirl or spread so that butter is coating the pan or griddle.
- Dip the croissant halves into the egg/milk mixture, and flip so each side is coated in the egg mixture. Add to the griddle and cook until golden brown. Flip and repeat on the other side.
- Continue with all the slices of croissant.
- Plate, adding 3 croissant halves to each plate. Top as desired (we love strawberries and soft whipped cream).
