Notes
- Make a grown-up version of this by adding a splash of Baileys or rum to the milk mixture.
- You could serve this for dessert instead of breakfast/brunch and put some vanilla ice cream on top.
- Take these to the next level and add a drizzle of orange icing on top.
- Add some crunch with a sprinkle of crushed pecans.
- Using slightly stale croissants works best for this recipe.
