This is one of those recipes that you will keep forever!. It is made with coarsely chopped croissants so it has a more buttery flavor than most overnight French toast recipes. It is, by far, the best I have ever made in this category. It’s a perfect recipe for Christmas morning so that while you are busy getting ready for the day, it will be cooking in the oven. Enjoy and pass the word along about my website! We have great recipes in our cookbooks that you won’t want to miss.
