Directions

1. Step 1Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Lightly butter a small oval (or other shallow 1 1/2- to 2-quart) baking dish; set aside.
2. Step 2In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, sugar, milk, and salt until combined. Add croissants; toss to coat. Let sit, turning occasionally, until they have absorbed some of the liquid, about 10 minutes. Pour mixture into prepared baking dish; smooth top with a spatula. Scatter with almonds.
3. Step 3Bake until pudding has puffed up and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 40 to 50 minutes. Cool at least 10 minutes before serving with whipped cream, if desired.
