WIFE SAVER BREAKFAST FRENCH TOAST CASSEROLE

Printable recipe at bottom of the post

INGREDIENTS:

• 8-10 cups of bread, cubed (10-12 whole slices)
• 6 eggs
• 1-1/2 cups half and half cream (or use milk)
• 1/4 cup white sugar
• 1 tablespoon vanilla
• 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 cup butter, melted
• 1/2 cup brown sugar

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 375 and generously grease a 9×13 baking pan with cooking spray.

Pour cubed bread into prepared pan.

Use the same bread measuring bowl and add eggs, half and half, white sugar, vanilla and ground cinnamon. Whisk until mixed well. Pour mixture slowly over bread.

 In a small bowl, melt butter and add brown sugar. Stir and spoon over bread. This is the most awkward step! Just do a little dollop here and there on the top of the dish.

Bake for 20-30 minutes or until a knife stuck in the center comes out clean.

Serves 8-12.

You can easily make this the night before, store wrapped in plastic wrap in the refrigerator. You may need to adjust your baking time if you do refrigerate this.
