Breakfast foods of any kind, will always be my favorite. Lately, we’ve been making a lot of this blueberry cream cheese french toast bake , mixed berry french toast and banana pecan streusel french toast bake.

They are super easy to assemble the night before and are always a hit with my family.

Ingredients

1 16 ounce (450 g) loaf of French bread, sourdough bread, or challah (day old bread works best), cut into 1-inch cubes with the ends discarded

1/2 cup cream cheese, softened (optional - leave out if preferred)

1 1/2 - 2 cups sliced strawberries, divided

6 large eggs

1 1/4 cups milk (I used almond)

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/3 cup maple syrup or honey

1/4 cup brown sugar (optional - add if you like your french toast sweeter - I left it out since we usually drizzle with maple syrup once baked)

2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Streusel Topping:

1/3 cup all-purpose flour

1/3 cup packed brown sugar

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

4 Tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed

Optional Toppings:

maple syrup

more fresh berries

whipped cream

powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Make the streusel topping: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon together. Cut in the cubed butter with a pastry blender or two forks. Set aside in the fridge.
  2. For the casserole Lightly grease a 9x9-inch square baking dish or 2.5 quart casserole dish.
  3. Arrange half of the bread cubes in the bottom of the pan. Drop spoonfuls of the softened cream cheese over the bread and top with half of the mixed berries.
  4. Layer with remaining bread cubes on top.
  5. In a large bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the eggs, milk, cinnamon, maple syrup, and vanilla.
  6. Pour evenly over bread cubes. Press the bread cubes slightly down to absorb the milk/egg mixture.
  7. Top evenly with remaining berries. Sprinkle the streusel topping over top. Cover pan with foil. Allow to chill in refrigerator for an hour or overnight.
  8. When ready to bake, remove french toast from fridge. Preheat oven to 350 F. Bake covered with foil for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 23-26 minutes or until fluffy and golden.
  9. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes. Serve warm with syrup and additional toppings if desired.
