French
Toast Casserole

Casserole

-scrap
bread (white, wheat, whatever you’ve got)

-4
tbsp white sugar

-1 tsp
cinnamon

-6
large eggs

-2
cups of heavy whipping cream

-1 tsp
vanilla

-¼
tsp salt

Crumble

-4
cups of flour

-4
cups of brown sugar

-1 ¼
cups of soft butter

-4
tbsp of cinnamon

1.    Grease a 2 quart casserole
dish.  Cut and cube the scrap bread and
place in the pan until you mostly cannot see the bottom of the dish.

2.    Combine the white sugar, cinnamon,
eggs, whipping cream, vanilla, and salt in a large bowl.  Pour this mixture over the bread, cover with
plastic wrap, and refrigerate it overnight.

3.    When it’s time to bake, preheat
the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

4.    In a large bowl, mix the flour,
brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon until if forms large crumbs.  

5.    Here’s the deal, I subscribe to
the belief that if crumble is involved there should be enough of it to cover
the filling so completely, I can’t see anything underneath it.  For some this might be too much.  Make as much or as little as you like and
then sprinkle it on top of the egg filling.

6.    Bake for 30 minutes or until a
knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let cool for 5 minutes and serve.

7.    (You can touch it up with some
additional powdered sugar or maple syrup on top if you so desire.  But with this version of the recipe there is
so much sugar already involved, I personally would not risk it.)
