Deen's Baked French Toast Casserole with Maple Syrup
The more I make "refrigerate overnight" breakfast casseroles the
more I appreciate them. They give me time to relax and enjoy the company of my
family and friends instead of being tied to the kitchen cooking. All I had to
do was put the casserole in the oven in the morning, no muss, no fuss. I made
this casserole for our Christmas brunch and everyone loved it.
This is the Baked
French Toast Casserole I made for our Christmas brunch. Some in my family can't
eat nuts, so I only made 1/2 of the Praline topping. Next year I will make the
full amount of the Praline topping and just add nuts to 1/2 of it.
This dish was so moist that some didn't use Maple syrup
with it.
