This Overnight French toast casserole recipe is easy to make and perfect when you have old or stale bread. This easy breakfast recipe also freezes great.
Spray a 9×13 pan with cooking spray or coat with melted butter. Cut the French bread into chunks and spread evenly in the pan.
In a bowl, mix together the eggs, milk, 2 Tablespoons sugar, salt, and vanilla extract. Pour over the bread and mix to fully coat.
In a separate bowl, mix 2 Tablespoons sugar and ground cinnamon. Sprinkle evenly over the top.
Cover and refrigerate overnight for best results (or bake immediately if needed).
Bake at 350°F for 45–50 minutes, until golden brown.
