Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

• 6 large croissants, cut into pieces
• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup milk
• 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
• 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and oregano.
3. Add the chopped spinach and crumbled feta to the egg mixture and stir to combine.
4. In a greased 9x13-inch baking dish, layer the croissant pieces evenly.
5. Pour the egg mixture over the croissants, gently pressing down to ensure they absorb the liquid.
6. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese on top of the mixture.
7. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes.
8. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the top is golden and set. Allow to cool slightly before serving.

Notes

Tip: For extra flavor, consider adding sun-dried tomatoes or olives to the filling!

For the best texture, let the croissants soak in the egg mixture for a few hours or overnight in the refrigerator. This allows them to become beautifully soft and custardy.

If you’re looking for a lighter option, you can substitute half-and-half with milk, though it may alter the creaminess slightly. Feel free to add other vegetables such as bell peppers or mushrooms for added flavor!

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
