Easy Maple French Toast Casserole
- Prep Time: 5 minutes
- Cook Time: 35 minutes
- Total Time: 40 minutes
- Yield: 8 to 12 1x
Description
The easiest breakfast recipe for either busy school days or lazy weekends. Enjoy!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 loaf of your favorite sandwich bread (we use a gluten-free bread from Trader Joe’s), torn into bite-sized pieces
- 4 eggs
- 2 cups of milk
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup of good quality maple syrup
- powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
- Grease a 9×12 baking dish with non-stick spray. Layer your entire loaf of torn bread (crust and all) over the bottom of your baking dish. Set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk your eggs just a bit then whisk in your milk, cinnamon and syrup. Pour this mixture down over your bread.
- At this point, you can either cover and refrigerate your casserole until you’re ready to bake it (up to 24 hours) or immediately pop it in the oven.
- Allow the casserole to bake about 35 minutes or until it’s not wobbly in the middle. The top of your casserole should be nice and toasty.
- Remove from oven and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Cut into squares and serve.
Notes
Use gluten-free bread to keep this gf friendly!

The last time I made something like this my kids thought it was a little too bread pudding-ish and I loved it. Do you think this would create a similar vibe?
Mix and Match Mama says
Yes, same vibe!

Anything with cinnamon or pumpkin qualifies as fall to me so when I seen this recipe I had to make it before I read the Friday favorites. Smells SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD!
