How to make

  1. Pre-heat the oven to 170°C / fan 150°C/ gas mark 3 ½. While the oven is heating up, slice each croissant in half and spread the bottom half with jam and butter. Put the tops back on and layer them into a 1.5 litre (or similar) ovenproof dish.
  2. Heat the whole milk and double cream in a pan until almost boiling, then remove the heat. Add the eggs and caster sugar to the bowl and quickly whisk to mix.
  3. Pour a splash of the hot milk and cream onto the eggs and sugar and whisk thoroughly. Slowly pour in the remaining milk and cream and whisk again.
  4. Pour over the custard mix you’ve just made and leave to soak for 10 minutes. Dot over all the blueberries, sprinkle with sugar and bake for 30 minutes until the custard has set and the top is crisp.
