Cinnamon Toast Casserole



This was good for our Sunday morning breakfast. 

  • 5 cups bread cubes (I cut up some french rolls that were going stale)
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 1/4 cup Bisquick mix (optional)
  • 1/4 cup white sugar, divided
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar, divided
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 3 TBS butter
  1. Preheat oven to 350.  Place the butter on the bottom of an 8x8" pan and place in oven for a few minutes until melted (to grease pan)
  2. Line bottom of pan with bread cubes.  In a seperate bowl, whisk together milk, eggs, and Bisquick.  Mix in 2 TBS sugar, brown sugar, salt, vanilla, and cinnamon.  Pour over bread and let stand 10 minutes.  Top with remaining sugar.  Bake in preheated oven for about 45 minutes, or until golden brown. 
Here's an idea for a topping:
  • 1 large apple, cut into cubes
  • 1 TBS butter
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  1. In small skillet, saute butter and apples until apples are soft (about 5 minutes).  Mix in cinnamon and put on top of cooked cinnamon toast casserole.
Or you could make a glaze to put on top.
