Croissant French Toast image

Had this at brunch in upstate New York and fell in love from first bite. I had never heard of it before nor seen a recipe, so had to try and record myself! Since croissants are naturally buttery, there is less need for butter or syrup as you would traditional French toast. Tastes especially great with either apricot pineapple jam or strawberries as shown.

I'm allergic to eggs, so I used a vegan egg replacer in this recipe. It turned out great!

This is a great recipe, but I made a few changes. I used almond milk instead of regular milk and I added some chopped nuts to the filling.

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my French toast turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked it.

I love how this recipe uses croissants instead of bread. It gives the French toast a really nice flavor and texture.

This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it's worth it. The croissants are so light and fluffy, and the filling is perfectly sweet and creamy.

I'm not a huge fan of croissants, but I loved this French toast! The bread was perfectly crispy and the filling was sweet and gooey.

This is the best French toast I've ever had! The croissants added a delicious flaky texture and the cinnamon sugar topping was the perfect finishing touch.
