Crockpot French Toast Casserole
Crockpot French toast casserole is the perfect overnight breakfast recipe. Allow the casserole to cook in the slow cooker during the night and breakfast is ready the next morning!
Ingredients
- 1 loaf of brioche bread
- 8 large eggs
- 2 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Topping
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 8 tablespoon butter
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- First, slice up the loaf of bread into 1-2 inch chunks. In a bowl, mix together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, sugar and vanilla.
- Add the bread to this mix and carefully fold everything in so it's all coated. Do not over do this because you can basically turn your bread into mush. You want to keep the pieces intact.
- Cover the bowl and allow to sit for at least 4 hours but up to 12 hours for the bread to soak up the custard. Also, mix together the topping. The topping will be very crumbly but that's what you want. Place it in the refrigerator as well with the bread.
- When read to cook, pour everything in the bowl into the crockpot. Then, top the bread with the crumbled topping. Place the crockpot on low for 8 hours and allow to slowly cook.
- Before serving, remove the lid for about 10 minutes so that the sugary topping can dry out crisp up some. Serve and enjoy.
