French Toast Casserole

I've tried a couple recipes for French Toast Casserole in the past, but never been too impressed. I got this one from my friend Nancy, and I got to taste hers before trying it myself, so I knew this one would be good.

French Toast Casserole

Ingredients:
  • 14 slices bread, cubed (I used sourdough bread I baked last week)
  • 8 oz. cream cheese cubed
  • 2 Tbsp sugar   
  • 1  tsp cinnamon
  • 1  dozen eggs
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1/3 cup syrup
Directions:
  1. Spray 9x13 pan; line with ½ the bread.  
  2. Drop cream cheese over bread, mix sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle half of it over cream cheese and bread.  Layer the rest of the bread and sprinkle the sugar and cinnamon over it.
  3. In separate bowl mix eggs, milk and syrup and beat well.  Pour over bread. 
  4. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  5. Half an hour before baking, remove from the refrigerator.  Bake at 350° for 50 minutes; keep covered the first 40 min and uncover for the last 10 min.  If it seems dry add more syrup.
  6. Serve with syrup and fruit of  your choice.

We had this for breakfast/brunch this morning, and it was so good!  I ended up baking it for an additional 10 minutes, because the egg mixture didn't seem to be done after the 50 minutes, so just judge it for yourself.  It definitely didn't seem too dry, and I didn't need to add more syrup. Then I let it sit for 5 minutes after it came out of the oven to set up.  The picture is what was left after Jeffrey, Cory and I finished eating - enough left for a couple of us to have tomorrow maybe.

I made this again this past weekend, and it was more than done after the 50 minutes. I'm thinking that my oven was starting to go bad when I first made this, so that's why it took longer to bake.

From now on I'll check this after 45 minutes.
