Maple Cream Cheese French Toast Casserole image

Plan ahead this needs to be refrigerated for a minimum of 8 hours or overnight. I tossed the bread cubes with a couple teaspoons of cinnamon before placing in the baking dish, but that is optional, if you prefer a less sweeter taste just omit the white sugar completely --- this is *very* good!

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

10 cups bread cubes (cut into about 1-inch cubes, use stale bread but not hard for this)
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
