This decadent breakfast dish is one that dreams are made of. Flakey pieces of croissant are slow cooked with sharp cheese and sweet caramelized onions in a rich custard filling. A little bit of Dijon adds a slight tanginess that pairs well with the cheese. If desired, double down on the ham and cheese croissant vibes by adding a half cup of chopped ham in Step 3.

Can this be cooked in both of the top zones in order to double the recipe?

Is this safe to sit overnight in the cooling zone?
