Croissant French Toast Cups

  • 2 large croissants cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 4 large eggs
  • cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 6 teaspoons chopped pecans

Syrup Topping

  • cup packed brown sugar
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter melted
  • ¼ cup pure maple syrup

Instructions

  • In a small bowl combine the ingredients for the cinnamon sugar. Set aside.
    1 cup sugar, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 6-cup muffin pan with cooking spray. Divide the croissant cubes among the muffin cups, pressing down.
    2 large croissants
  • In a medium bowl whisk eggs, milk and 2 tablespoons brown sugar together. Carefully pour over cubed croissants, trying not to spill the egg mixture. Gently press croissants into egg mixture to soak bread. Sprinkle each muffin cup with cinnamon sugar and sprinkle with a teaspoon of chopped pecans.

  • Bake, uncovered for 35 minutes, until they are puffy and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Let stand 10 minutes.
  • In the meantime, combine the 1/3 cup brown sugar, melted Cabot butter, and maple syrup in a small saucepan. Bring to a gentle boil over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Remove the croissant French toast cups from the muffin pan and serve drizzled with warm sauce.
