Can you use almond milk instead of dairy?

Hi Melanie, I definitely think you could!
Yohansi says
Delicious! This is my Sunday breakfast favorite. I make a bourbon sauce and drizzle it when I serve it.
Lidia says
Thank you for the comment and a great idea, Yohansi! 🙂
Zanna says
The instructions say to serve immediately, but will it be okay if kept warm for 30 minutes prior to serving? I think this would be a big hit at my company’s potluck.
Yummiest Food says
Yes, Zanna. You can keep it warm for 30 minutes prior to serving. Have a great company’s potluck! 🙂
Lisa says
Delicious breakfast casserole! Made it for camping friends and we all loved it 😊I doubled the recipe and used a foil pan a bit smaller than 9×13”. Turned out great. Will make again for sure!

Pamela Browning says
Oooo! This looks so yummy! But, I didn’t have any croissants! I did have canned biscuits, and so I decided to give that a try! I baked the whole can of biscuits, but only used about 1/2 the can. I followed the rest of your recipe! It’s in the oven as we speak! Can’t wait to taste test it. Thank you for this delicious recipe with blueberries!
Yummiest Food says
You’re very welcome, Pamela! 🙂 I’m glad you like the recipe!

Lisa says
I would like to make this for a brunch, some people are gluten-free. If I use gluten-free croissants is the recipe acceptable?
Any feedback is appreciated!

OMG! So so good! My family thought it was even better the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th day! I guess all the juices seeped itnto the bread and meld together. It is so good they have asked me to make it again today right after we finished the last piece. So much easier than another recipe I used. But I did use their recipe for blueberry sauce to go over it.
