- Remove from refrigerator and bake in a preheated oven for 45 minutes or until bread cubes are golden brown. Remove from oven. Allow to cool for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with a little powdered sugar. Garnish with fresh cranberries and mini gingerbread men. Serve immediately with a side of maple syrup. Enjoy!
Notes
- Nutrition information is an estimate
- You can refrigerate for up to 24 hours. By refrigerating the French Toast Casserole for at least 2 hours, the JUST Egg mixture has more time to soak into the bread making a more evenly cooked casserole.
- This baked French toast casserole is the best way to use up stale bread. Just allow it to refrigerate for a few extra hours so the JUST Egg mixture completely soaks into the bread.
- This recipe calls for French bread, however you can use sourdough, brioche or Italian bread, if preferred.
