FAQs

Can I use a different bread?
Definitely! While croissants give a rich, buttery texture, you can swap in any bread you have on hand—white, challah, French, or even cinnamon raisin bread all work great.

Can I mix in fruit or nuts?
Yes! Try adding blueberries, diced apples, or a handful of chopped pecans or walnuts for added flavor and texture.

Can I prep these the night before?
Sort of. You can prep all your ingredients ahead of time, but don’t combine the bread and egg mixture until right before baking—unless you’re using a sturdier bread like French or brioche, which can hold up overnight without turning mushy.

Can I freeze them?
Absolutely. Wrap each muffin individually in plastic wrap and store in a freezer bag. Reheat in the microwave or a toaster oven for a quick and delicious breakfast anytime.
