BAKED CREAM CHEESE FRENCH TOAST CASSEROLE



Baked Cream Cheese French Toast Casserole image

Categories     Egg     Bread     Breakfast     Brunch     Bake

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 (14 oz) loaf Challah Bread (or french or sour dough)
8 ounces Brick-Style Cream Cheese, softened to room temperature
2 tablespoons Confectioners' Sugar
3 teaspoons Vanilla Extract, Divided
8 Large Eggs
2 1/4 cups Whole Milk (or half & half)
3/4 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
2/3 cup Packed Light Brown Sugar
1/3 cup Packed Light Brown Sugar (STREUSEL TOPPING)
1/3 cup All-Purpose Flour (STREUSEL TOPPING)
1/2 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon (STREUSEL TOPPING)
6 tablespoons Unsalted Butter, Cold And Cubed (STREUSEL TOPPING)
1 Fresh Fruit, Maple Syrup, and/or Confectioners' Sugar For Topping (Optional)

Steps:

  • Grease a 9x13 pan with butter or spray with nonstick spray.
  • Slice then cut the bread into cubes, about 1 inch in size. Spread half of the cubes into the prepared baking pan.
  • Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat the room temperature (not cold!) cream cheese on medium-high speed until completely smooth.
  • Beat in the confectioners' sugar and 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract until combined. Drop random spoonfuls of cream cheese mixture on top of the bread. Layer the remaining bread cubes on top of cream cheese. Set aside.
  • Whisk the eggs, milk, cinnamon, brown sugar, and remaining vanilla together until no brown sugar lumps remain. Pour over the bread. Cover the pan tightly with plastic wrap and stick in the refrigerator for 3 hours - overnight. Overnight is best.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Remove pan from the refrigerator.
  • Prepare the topping: Whisk the brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon together in a medium bowl. Cut in the cubed butter with a pastry blender or two forks. Sprinkle the topping over the soaked bread.
  • Bake uncovered for 45-55 minutes or until golden brown on top. I usually bake it for 45 minutes because I like it softer. Serve immediately. Cover leftovers tightly and store in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.
  • Make ahead tip: Prepare the topping in advance, cover tightly, and store in the refrigerator. Sprinkle over the soaked bread before baking. For freezing, prepare the recipe through step 4 (without preheating the oven) and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator then bake as directed.

Optional: fresh fruit, maple syrup, and/or confectioners' sugar for topping
Day-old, crusty bread is perfect for french toast casseroles. I prefer challah bread. I slice it up and let it sit out all day.
Since the cream cheese is only mixed with a little sugar and vanilla, make sure you are using quality cream cheese that tastes good. I love full-fat Philadelphia brand brick-style cream cheese for this dish.

Steps:

  • Grease a 9x13 pan with butter or spray with nonstick spray. Slice then cut the bread into cubes, about 1 inch in size. Spread half of the cubes into the prepared baking pan. Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat the room temperature (not cold!) cream cheese on medium-high speed until completely smooth. Beat in the confectioners' sugar and 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract until combined. Drop random spoonfuls of cream cheese mixture on top of the bread. Layer the remaining bread cubes on top of cream cheese. Set aside. Whisk the eggs, milk, cinnamon, brown sugar, and remaining vanilla together until no brown sugar lumps remain. Pour mixture over the bread. Cover the pan tightly with plastic wrap and stick in the refrigerator for 3 hours - overnight. Overnight is best. Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Remove pan from the refrigerator. Prepare the topping: Whisk the brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon together in a medium bowl. Cut in the cubed butter with a pastry blender or two forks. Sprinkle the topping over the soaked bread. Bake for 45-55 minutes or until golden brown on top. I usually bake it for 45 minutes because I like it softer. Serve immediately. Cover leftovers tightly and store in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. Make ahead tip: Prepare the topping in advance, cover tightly, and store in the refrigerator. Sprinkle over the soaked bread before baking. For freezing, prepare the recipe through step 4 (without preheating the oven) and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator then bake as directed.

Categories     Bread     Breakfast

Number Of Ingredients 17

butter (for preparing baking dish)
1 loaf French bread
8 large eggs
1 & 1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Dash salt
Praline Topping, recipe follows
PRALINE TOPPING
2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 cup chopped pecans
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl and mix well with a wooden spoon.

Steps:

  • Prepare 9x13 baking dish by generously buttering the entire dish. Set baking dish aside. Slice French bread, on the bias approximately 1-inch thick. Arrange slices in your prepared baking dish in 2 rows, overlapping the slices. Set dish aside. In a large bowl, whisk eggs. Add half-and-half, milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt and whisk until blended. Pour mixture over the bread slices, making sure they are covered evenly with the milk-egg mixture. Spoon some of the mixture in between the slices. I like to make sure all my slices are good and coated. Even dunking them in the mixture sometimes. Cover with foil and refrigerate overnight. The next day, preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Scoop out praline topping and make 8 dollops of topping. Then spread Praline Topping evenly over the bread (like you are icing a cake). Bake for 40 minutes, until puffed and lightly golden. Can freeze leftovers and reheat in a preheated 350 degree oven for 10 minutes.
