Ingredients
French Toast Casserole
- 17 ounce loaf brioche cubed
- 8 eggs
- 2 ½ cups whole milk
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon salt
Topping
- ¼ cup butter melted
- ⅓ cup brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Note: you can prep this the night before. Grease a 6-quart slow cooker.
- Add the cubed brioche to the slow cooker.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, maple syrup, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt.
- Pour the egg mixture over the bread and gently press the bread down to soak.
- Stir the brown sugar and cinnamon into the melted butter and spoon evenly over the top. If prepping the night before, remove the insert, cover, and refrigerate.
- If refrigerated overnight, let it sit at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes. Cover and cook on high for 2 ½ to 3 hours or on low for 4 to 5 hours, until the center is set.
Notes
To make ahead, assemble, cover, and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, take it out of the fridge and let it sit for 20-30 minutes to warm up a bit, and then cook as directed.
