Tips:

  • Prep Ahead: Save time by prepping the casserole the night before. Just assemble it and refrigerate overnight. Pop it in the oven in the morning for a quick and easy breakfast.
  • Choose Your Bread: Use a sturdy bread that can hold up to the egg mixture, such as a French baguette or a sourdough loaf. You can also use croissants or English muffins.
  • Don't Overcrowd the Casserole: Make sure there is enough room for the bread to absorb the egg mixture without getting soggy. If the casserole is too crowded, the bread will not cook evenly.
  • Bake Until Golden Brown: The casserole is done baking when the top is golden brown and the center is set. Insert a toothpick into the center of the casserole; it should come out clean.
  • Serve with Your Favorite Toppings: Top the casserole with your favorite breakfast toppings, such as cheese, bacon, sausage, or salsa.
