Whenever there’s an occasion that calls for a special breakfast or brunch item, I know I want something easy.

I am not a morning person after all.

But just because I want something that’s easy doesn’t mean I want to sacrifice that wow factor that a special morning calls for.

This blueberry croissant bake checks those boxes.

It’s incredibly easy and also knock your socks off impressive.

We’re talking buttery, flaky croissants, sweet blueberries and a rich creamy cheesecake filling.

  • Cream cheese– Softened full fat cream cheese
  • Sugar– Granulated
  • Eggs
  • Lemon juice– Fresh
  • Vanilla extract– Real vanilla extract
  • Powdered milk
  • Powdered sugar– For garnish

How to Make

This blueberry croissant breakfast bake is so easy to make!

Liberally spray a 9×9″ dish with non stick spray.

Then spread the chopped croissant pieces into an even layer in the prepared dish.

Sprinkle the blueberries evenly out overtop of the croissant pieces.

Set the dish aside.

Then add put the sugar and cream cheese into a mixing bowl.

Use a hand mixer to blend them together until smooth and evenly combined.

Add the eggs, lemon juice, and vanilla extract into the cream cheese mixture.

Mix it again until the mixture’s smooth and creamy.

Slow whip the milk in until it’s all evenly incorporated.

Pour the mixture evenly over the dish.

Cover and let the dish sit for 30 minutes so the croissants can absorb the mixture.

Bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes until the mixture is set and the top is golden brown and crusty.

Carefully remove the hot pastry bake from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes.

Sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired.

Cut into slices, serve, and enjoy!

Storing Leftovers

Store leftovers tightly wrapped in foil in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Reheat in a hot oven until warmed through.

Tips and Tricks

  • Make sure you let the croissants sit in the custard prior to baking. If you skip this, parts of the croissants will be sort of dry.
  • You can substitute other berries for the blueberries. Both sliced strawberries and raspberries would be good in this.
  • Not a morning person? Make it the night before to let the dish soak overnight. Then just pop it in the oven in the morning.
