Method

  • step 1

    Cut each of the croissants in half, then arrange them roughly, overlapping them slightly, in a deep medium baking dish about 20 x 20cm.

  • step 2

    Pour the custard into a small saucepan and whisk in the milk. Warm over a low heat for 3 mins or until just starting to steam. Whisk through half the lemon curd. Pour the custard over and around the croissants, then set aside for 30 mins-1 hr for the croissants to absorb some of the custard.

  • step 3

    Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/ gas 4. Nestle the blueberries around the croissants and dollop over teaspoons of the remaining lemon curd. Bake for 35-40 mins or until the top is golden brown. Rest for 10 mins before dusting with icing sugar, if you like.

We would recommend trying to make your own custard - if you search homemade custard recipe on our website.…

Hi there, I don't really like cooked fruits/berries but I do like fresh fruit. Could I add fresh strawberries after it is cooked? I don't like blueberries at all. Thank you

Hi, yes you could try this. Raspberries would also work well, as would chopped nectarines or peaches when available. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team.

question

When you say cut in half do you mean as if you were going to spread each side with butter? (Rather than across)

Hi, thanks for your question. Yes that's right - so you have two thin halves from each (rather than two chunkier halves). We hope this helps. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team.

Will this freeze OK? Thanks

Hi, thanks for your question. Yes you can freeze this. We'd recommend cooking it first then cooling completely before freezing. Defrost in the fridge overnight before reheating. To reheat, cover the top with a layer of slightly damp baking paper and then a layer of foil to stop the top burning. We…
