French Toast Casserole

This is my "go-to" recipe for brunch. It's super easy with only a few ingredients and steps, but others will think that you spent hours in the kitchen preparing this dish. Enjoy!

Ingredients

1 stick butter, melted
1 cup heaping brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1 loaf french bread sliced into 3/4" thickness
5 eggs
1 1/3 cup milk
powdered sugar (optional)

When you are ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 and bake for 20-25 minutes.

Sprinkle powdered sugar on top or don't. Smother it with syrup or don't. You really can't go wrong with this recipe! Oh, and I wish I had a photo of the final project, but it gets gobbled up everytime before I get a chance!

  1. Oh my gosh! Yum! I'm sure the butter mixture on the bottom of the dish really takes this over the top - I can see why you never have enough of the finished product to photograph! We love french toast - I should really try this. Thanks so much for sharing! You have such a pretty blog.
