Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C).
Step 2
Serve warm with your favorite toppings.
Step 3
Whisk eggs, half-and-half, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg together in a shallow bowl. Dip each croissant half into egg mixture, one at a time, flipping it and lightly pressing down, until well coated.
Step 4
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat; add four croissant halves, cut-side down. Fry until browned on both sides, turning once, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to the oven to keep warm while you cook the remaining croissants.
