Croissants. Apple butter. THAT GLAZE!!!! This is fabulous Nicole!!!! What an incredible breakfast!!!

It is fab! My family was like, “Woah, are we dreaming?” I pinched them so they’d know that no, mom actually got up before you and made a killer breakfast casserole. This is not just any casserole, it’s based on their favorite donut so it was pretty exciting for them. I got six thumbs up!

 

Ingredients

 

Apple Mixture:

4-5 Fuji Apples – peeled and chopped (5 cups)

6 Tablespoons Land O Lakes Butter

1 packed Cup Domino Brown Sugar

1 teaspoon Argo Corn Starch

2 Tablespoons Warm Water

Casserole:

5 Large Pillsbury or bakery Croissants (about 12 ounces) – sliced in half across the middle

1/2 Cup Borden Heavy Cream

1/2 Cup Musselman’s Apple Butter

3 Lightly Beaten Eggland’s Best Eggs

1/8 teaspoon McCormick Ground Cinnamon

Glaze:

3/4 Cup Domino Powdered Sugar

4 Tablespoons Borden Heavy Cream

 

Directions

 

Melt butter in a large sauté pan, over medium heat. Add brown sugar and stir until completely incorporated. Transfer chopped apples to pan and stir until coated with sugar mixture. Cook for 5 minutes while stirring frequently. In a small bowl, stir together the corn starch and warm water. Add the corn starch mixture to apples and continue to cook/stir for 5 more minutes. Remove from heat and set aside while prepping the other ingredients. The apples should be soft and the liquid will be a syrup consistency.

Casserole

Preheat oven to 375°F

Whisk together the heavy cream, Musselman’s Apple Butter, eggs and cinnamon. Spray 9×11 casserole dish with non-stick. Place the bottom halves of the croissants in an even layer. Pour half of the apple butter/cream mixture over the croissants. Top with half of the caramelized apple mixture. Arrange the croissant tops in an even layer. Top with the remaining cream mixture and apples. Pour all of the syrupy apple mixture over the casserole. Gently press down on the top with a wooden spoon or spatula. Bake at 375° for 25 minutes. Once lightly browned on top; remove from oven, glaze and serve.

Glaze

Mix powdered sugar and heavy cream together with a fork until smooth. Drizzle over the Apple Fritter Casserole. (These measurements yield 1/2 cup of glaze.)
