Ingredients
- 2 large Co-op British free range eggs
- 4 tbsp Co-op semi-skimmed milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp maple syrup, plus extra to serve
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 4 Co-op all butter croissants, halved lengthways
- 2 tbsp Co-op unsalted butter
- 3 tbsp Fairtrade caster sugar
- Fresh berries, to serve
Method
- Whisk the eggs, milk, vanilla, maple syrup and half the cinnamon in a shallow bowl
- Soak the croissants in the mixture for a few seconds on each side
- Melt half the butter in a frying pan on a medium heat until foaming, then fry 4 of the croissant halves for 2-3 mins on each side, pressing down lightly, until golden brown and crisp
- Transfer to a baking tray and repeat for the remaining halves and butter
- Preheat the grill to medium-high
- Mix the caster sugar with the rest of the cinnamon and sprinkle generously over the top of the croissants
- Grill for 1-2 mins, until the sugar melts and caramelises, then serve the croissants drizzled with the extra maple syrup and topped with fresh berries
