6croissants
large, chopped into chunks, these are pre-made croissants that I pick up at my local grocery store bakery section, not croissant dough
½ cupheavy cream
½ cupcinnamon apple sauce
or 1/2 cup apple butter
3eggs
lightly beaten
⅛ teaspooncinnamon
¾ cuppowdered sugar
4 tablespoonsheavy cream
Instructions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375*F
Step 2
In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat.
Step 3
Add brown sugar and stir until incorporated.
Step 4
Add cinnamon and nutmeg, mix well.
Step 5
Add diced apples and stir to coat. Simmer mixture for 5 minutes or until apples are soft and to the desired texture. I recommend tasting one to see if it's soft enough.
Step 6
In a small bowl combine cornstarch and water. Mix well then add cornstarch mixture to apples and stir. Remove from heat and set aside.
Step 7
In a 9x13 casserole dish, lay out croissant pieces, spreading out so they cover the bottom of the pan.
Step 8
Top croissants with apple mixture. Spreading evenly over croissants.
Step 9
In a separate bowl combine heavy cream, apple butter (or apple sauce), eggs and cinnamon. Mix well.
Step 10
Pour apple butter mixture over croissants and apples. Drizzle over the top to cover apples.
Step 11
Bake for 25 minutes.
Step 12
When casserole is removed from oven, allow to sit for 5 minutes.
Step 13
While casserole is cooking, in a small bowl combine heavy whipping cream and powdered sugar 1/4 cup at a time. Add more heavy cream 1/2 teaspoon at a time if needed. Mixture should be thick but should drip from spoon when held in air.
Step 14
Drizzle casserole with icing and serve immediately.
