I make a French Toast Casserole that is yummy!!!

• Bread - (Save the heels of bread, hamburger buns, slightly stale bread, etc in a bag in the fridge. It keeps a good long while in the fridge. Just don’t use the moldy kind. J)
• 2 – 8oz pkgs of cream cheese
• 12 eggs
• 2 c. milk
• 1/3 c. of sucanat granules or maple syrup
• 1 t. vanilla

·Grease a 13x9 pan
·Tear the bread into bite-sized (or slightly larger) pieces until the bottom of the pan is covered
·Cube two 8oz packages of cream cheese (putting the bricks in the freezer for 30 minutes helps with this), and layer half of the cream cheese on top of the bread
·Tear more bread to cover the cream cheese. The amount of bread is not an exact science… I probably end up with the bread/cream cheese being 2-2.5 inches deep.
·Top with the remainder of cream cheese
·Beat 12 eggs, 2 cups of milk, 1/3-1/2 cup of Sucanat granules (or maple syrup), and 1 t. vanilla. Pour over the bread/cream cheese.
·Cover and place in the fridge overnight
·Bake uncovered at 375 for 45 minutes the next morning
·Serve with syrup
