Our new Strawberries-and-Cream Breakfast Casserole tastes as good as it looks. 😍 Get the recipe below! Ingredients: - 1 cup (4 oz.) powdered sugar, plus more for garnish - 2 (8-oz.) pkgs. cream cheese, at room temperature, divided - 2 tsp. grated lemon zest, plus 1 Tbsp. fresh juice (from 1 large lemon), divided - 1 1/2 Tbsp. vanilla extract, divided - 2 cups fresh strawberries, divided - 2/3 cup granulated sugar - 4 large eggs, divided - 2 cups half-and-half - 1/2 tsp. kosher salt - Cooking spray - 14 (4 1/2-in.) miniature croissants, divided - Whipped cream, for garnish Directions: 1. Whisk together powdered sugar, 8 ounces of the cream cheese, lemon zest, 1/2 tablespoon of lemon the juice, and 1/2 tablespoon of the vanilla in a large bowl until combined. Finely chop 1 1/2 cups of the strawberries, then fold into powdered sugar mixture; set aside. 2. Whisk together granulated sugar, 1 of the eggs, and remaining 8 ounces cream cheese in a separate large bowl until combined. Whisk in half-and-half, salt, and remaining 3 eggs, 1 tablespoon vanilla, and 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice until combined; set aside. 3. Coat a 13- x 9-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Slice 12 of the croissants in half horizontally and place bottom halves in a single layer in prepared baking dish, cut sides up. Dollop croissants evenly with strawberry mixture; replace top halves of croissants, cut sides down. Pour egg mixture evenly over top. Tear remaining 2 croissants into bite-sized pieces and tuck around croissant sandwiches to fill any gaps. Cover with aluminum foil and chill for at least 8 hours or up to 12 hours. 4. When ready to bake, let stand at room temperature while oven preheats to 325°F. Bake in preheated oven, covered, for 40 minutes. Remove foil and continue to bake until golden brown and set, about 20 minutes more. Let rest on a wire rack for 15 minutes. 5. Meanwhile, thinly slice remaining 1/2 cup strawberries. Arrange sliced strawberries over casserole, dust with powdered sugar, and garnish with whipped cream. #breakfastideas #brunch #brunchideas #recipes
