Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Butter a 9×13” baking dish and set aside.
- Toast croissants on a baking sheet for about 10-15 minutes until lightly crisped.* Then tear into bite-sized pieces. You will have about 14-16 cups of croissant bits.
- In a large pot, heat butter and oil over medium heat until the butter has melted. Add in the diced onion and celery along with a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often, for 8 minutes or until tender.
- Add in the sliced mushrooms, fresh sage and thyme, poultry seasoning, and the ½ tsp salt and cook, stirring often, for 10 minutes until mushrooms are tender. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
- To the pot, add eggs and chicken broth and stir to combine. Add in the torn croissant pieces and toss to combine.
- Pour into the prepared baking dish and cover with aluminum foil. Bake for 20 minutes, then remove foil and bake for another 15 minutes until the top is golden brown.
