- 6. Serve with warm maple syrup.
Tips:
- Use a good quality bread for the strata. A sturdy bread like sourdough or French bread will hold up well in the custard mixture.
- If you don't have any raisins on hand, you can substitute dried cranberries, cherries, or blueberries.
- To make a vegetarian strata, omit the bacon or sausage. You can also add in some chopped vegetables, such as zucchini, bell peppers, or spinach.
- For a sweeter strata, add a tablespoon or two of sugar to the custard mixture.
- To make the strata ahead of time, prepare it up to the point of baking. Cover and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, let it come to room temperature for 30 minutes before baking.
