EVERYDAY TIPS TO MAKE BERRIES AND CREAM STUFFED FRENCH TOAST CROISSANTS:
Bring the low-fat cream cheese to room temperature, makes it easier to blend.
Using almond extract brings a different flavor that I prefer, vanilla extract works as well.
The cream cheese layer is thin because it packs a lot of flavor.
I use bananas and fresh raspberries. Feel free to adjust the fruit to your families taste.
When fresh fruit is unavailable, add fresh fruit preserves to the base of the croissant, also delicious.
Use your impeccably clean hands to carefully coat the croissants with the egg wash and flip them with the egg mixture to keep the fruit inside.
