Ingredients
French Toast Casserole:
- 1 loaf brioche bread 14 - 16oz, cut into 1-inch cubes.
- 1 ⅔ cups oat milk or unsweetened almond milk vanilla or plain
- 6 eggs
- ¼ cup pure maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Streusel Topping:
- ⅓ cup all-purpose flour spoon & leveled
- ⅓ cup coconut sugar or light brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 5 tablespoon cold unsalted butter cubed
- Optional Topping: fresh berries maple syrup and/or powdered sugar for topping
Instructions
Prepare (Night Before):
- Lightly grease a 9x13" baking pan with nonstick spray or butter.
- Add cubed brioche to the greased baking dish.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together almond milk, eggs, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Pour mixture over bread and use your hands to make sure all pieces of bread are saturated.
- Wrap the baking dish with tin foil and let it sit in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight, if possible.
Bake (Day Of):
- Once ready, preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Make the streusel topping by adding all the ingredients to a small mixing bowl. Use two knives or your hands to “cut” the cubed butter into the flour. It should be crumbly.
- Once the oven is heated, remove the tin foil, evenly sprinkle the streusel on top of the casserole, and bake for 40 - 50 minutes, until the top is golden brown. If browning too fast, add tin foil back on top during the last 15 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes.
- Sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired, and serve with fresh berries. Enjoy!
Notes
- MUST soak in the fridge for at least 4 hours. Overnight is best!
- Oat Milk: I recommend oat milk because it is creamy, but almond milk works too! Can be substituted with whole cow's milk, 2% milk, or cashew milk.
- * Cut the brioche bread into 1-inch cubes: nothing smaller, or the casserole can get mushy.
- Customize the flavor: feel free to experiment with flavor variations. You can add a handful of chocolate chips, raisins, or diced apples to the bread cubes for added flavor and texture. Just be mindful not to overcrowd the casserole with mix-ins.
- Storing: For best results, cover the baking dish with aluminum foil or place leftovers in airtight containers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Reheating: Reheat in the oven for best results at 350°F for 8 - 10 minutes (until warm) or in the microwave for 30 - 90 seconds. The oven method is better.
