French Toast Casserole image

Whenever I host people over for brunch, the one thing I hate is sitting over the stove flipping a million pieces of french toast. But this French toast casserole solves all those problems. You can make this casserole the night before and it'll be ready to go the next morning. This casserole is a twist on the classic bread pudding. But when you top it with some syrup, make a side of scrambled eggs, and throw in some crispy bacon, it's the perfect breakfast dish. This recipe serves...

1 loaf of thick cut French brioche bread
6 eggs
3 1/2 cups of half and half
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon
2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 orange, zested
2 teaspoons vanilla paste

Steps:

  • Cut the crust off the brioche bread, and then cut into one inch cubes, and spread across the baking pan.
