Croissant French Toast

• 1 c. milk
• 2 T. granulated sugar
• 1 egg
• ¼ tsp. salt
• ¼ tsp. vanilla extract
• ½ c. flour
• 1 tsp. baking powder
• 3 croissants, halved lengthwise

In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, sugar, eggs, salt, and vanilla extract until smooth. Add the flour and baking powder, stirring to combine until there are no lumps in the batter.

Heat a griddle over medium-high heat and coat with nonstick spray or oil. Dip the croissant halves in the batter, allowing excess to drip back into the bowl. Arrange in a single layer on the griddle.

Cook until golden brown on one side, about 3 to 5 minutes. Flip each half and continue to cook until golden brown on the second side. Serve warm with fresh fruit and maple syrup.
