Overnight Eggnog French Toast Casserole With Streusel Topping Food

OVERNIGHT FRENCH TOAST CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Butter or spray a 9 x 13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray.
• Cut the brioche into 1-inch cubes and place the cubed bread into the prepared pan.
• In a large bowl whisk the eggs until well beaten. Add in the milk, melted butter, vanilla, cinnamon, salt and light brown sugar. Vigorously whisk all ingredients together until completely combined.
• Pour the egg mixture evenly over the brioche cubes. You can gently stir any areas that seem to be a bit dry, but do not overmix. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight (up to 12 hours).
• Prepare the topping: In a large bowl, stir together the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt. Use a pastry blender or 2 forks to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until small clumps are formed. Gently stir in the oats. Place the topping into a sealed container and refrigerate until you're ready to bake.
• When you're ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Remove plastic wrap from the casserole dish and evenly sprinkle on the refrigerated topping.
• Bake for 50-60 minutes or until the top of the casserole is golden brown and the french toast is firm.
• Serve warm with Challenge butter and maple syrup.

Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Combine the turbinado sugar and remaining 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg in a small bowl. Uncover the challah and sprinkle with the sugar mixture. Bake until browned and puffed, 35 to 40 minutes. Let sit 10 minutes. Dust with confectioners' sugar. Serve with whipped cream and/or syrup.
