How To Make french toast brunch casserole

Step 1

If using fresh bread, tear into pieces the night before and leave out so that it dries out a bit.

Step 3

Put bread pieces in a large bowl, pour in the milk mixture and stir together. Place into your sprayed pan and let sit for about 1/2 hour. Preheat oven to 350ºF.
Step 4

Make topping of brown sugar, cinnamon and pecans. Sprinkle on bread and dot with butter. Bake for 1 hour or until middle is almost set. If not, bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until more set.
Step 5

Cool for 10 minutes before serving.
