Sourdough French Toast Casserole With Apples, Cinnamon, and Raisin
Sourdough French Toast Casserole is perfect for those loaves of sourdough bread that didn't rise just right. It is made with fresh apples and cinnamon, making it the perfect fall treat.
Servings: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 1 loaf sourdough brioche or substitute with another type of sourdough bread
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1/2 cup maple syrup or honey
- 10 eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 3 apples peeled and chopped
- 1/2 cup raisins
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Cut the loaf of sourdough bread in one inch cubes and place in a 9 by 13 glass baking dish.
- In a large glass bowl, whisk together the milk, maple syrup, eggs, cinnamon and vanilla.
- Add the chopped apples and raisins to the bread.
- Pour the egg mixture over the bread and allow to stand for 10-15 minutes, or overnight (in the refrigerator). The goal is to saturate the bread with the mixture.
- Bake for 30 minutes until golden brown around the edges and cooked through in the center.

Notes
- This is a perfect way to use up leftover sourdough bread or a bread recipe that doesn't turn out right.
- I love making this ahead of time, sticking it in the fridge overnight for an easy breakfast for a busy morning.
- Turn it into a dessert by serving it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
