Time 9h25m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 (12-14 ounce) loaf french bread, sourdough bread, or challah*
8 ounces (224g) block cream cheese, softened to room temperature*
2 Tablespoons (15g) confectioners' sugar (do not leave out)
3 teaspoons (15ml) pure vanilla extract, divided
8 large eggs
2 and 1/4 cups (540ml) whole milk
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2/3 cup (133g) packed light brown sugar
1/3 cup (69g) packed light brown sugar
1/3 cup (41g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
6 Tablespoons (86g) unsalted butter, cold and cubed
optional: maple syrup and/or confectioners' sugar for topping

Steps:

  • Grease a 9×13 inch or any 3-4 quart oven-safe dish 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 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. (I like to make sure some cream cheese is still exposed on top just for looks.) Set aside.
  • Whisk the eggs, milk, cinnamon, brown sugar, and remaining vanilla together until no brown sugar lumps remain. Pour evenly over the bread. Cover the pan tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours and up to 24 hours. Overnight is best.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Remove pan from the refrigerator.
  • Whisk the brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon together in a medium bowl. Cut in the cold cubed butter with a pastry blender or two forks. Sprinkle the topping evenly 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. Drizzle with optional maple syrup or dust with confectioners' sugar. Serve warm.
  • Cover leftovers tightly and store in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality bread for your casserole. A sturdy bread, such as French bread or sourdough, will hold up well in the custard and not become soggy.
  • If you don't have time to let the casserole soak overnight, you can bake it right away. However, letting it soak overnight will give the bread more time to absorb the custard and will result in a more flavorful casserole.
  • You can add a variety of different fruits to your casserole. Some popular choices include berries, apples, and bananas.
  • If you want a more decadent casserole, you can add a layer of cream cheese or whipped cream to the top before baking.
  • Serve the casserole warm with maple syrup, honey, or powdered sugar.

Conclusion:

Overnight French Toast Cream Cheese Casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast casserole that is perfect for a special occasion or a lazy weekend morning.
