Croissant Breakfast Casserole Recipe
Grease the bottom of a cast-iron skillet with olive oil to ensure the recipe does not stick. Preheat oven to 325°F.
Begin by ripping apart about six croissants to layer the bottom of the pan. Pour over 1/2 cup of each of the berries.
Layer over the cream cheese cubes evenly to the top of the croissants and berries.

Rip the remaining six croissants and layer over the top.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, mix together eggs, milk, melted butter, basil, lemon zest, cinnamon, and maple syrup. Mix well together.
Pour the mixture evenly over the top of the berry, croissant, and cream cheese layers.

Pour the remaining berries over the top.
Bake in the oven for roughly 20min or until the egg mixture is fully cooked. Do not let the tops of the croissants burn.
If they begin to burn, turn down the oven heat for 300°F or cover the top with foil. You may need to adjust the time of your baking based on your oven and location.

Remove from the oven and let cool for about 15 minutes before adding powdered sugar layer over the top. Add more syrup, if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy!
