Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 180°C/160°C fan/gas 4.
Step 2
Place the croissants on a baking tray lined with baking paper and bake on the middle rack of the oven for 18 mins until golden and crisp.
Step 3
Meanwhile, add the blueberries to a pan over medium heat and cook for two mins, then add 2 tbsp of the sugar. Continue cooking for 5 mins until the berry mixture becomes thick and jammy, then set aside.
Step 4
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, remaining sugar and the lime zest and juice until well-combined.
Step 5
Once the croissants are baked, cut each one nearly in half, leaving the top attached on one side, and spread each bottom half with some cream cheese. Add a generous spoonful of blueberries and fold the top half of each croissant over. Serve immediately.
