How to Make Cinnamon Apple French Toast Casserole
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Cut the bread into 1-inch pieces and arrange them in an even layer in the prepared baking dish.
Step 2: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon.
Step 3: Pour the egg mixture over the bread and gently toss so the bread can soak it up.
Step 4: Spoon the apple pie filling over the top, spreading it around the casserole.
Step 5: Bake for 50–55 minutes, or until the casserole is set and cooked through.
Step 6: Let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
Important Recipe Notes
- Use sturdy bread: Country white bread works well because it holds up nicely after soaking in the egg mixture.
- Try to cut the bread into similar-sized pieces so everything cooks evenly.
- Gently toss the bread with the egg mixture to make sure the pieces are well coated.
- Spread the apples evenly: Spoon the apple pie filling across the top so you get apple flavor in every serving.
- Check for doneness: The center should be set and no longer look wet or runny when the casserole is finished.
- Allow the casserole to sit for a few minutes before serving. This makes it easier to cut and serve.
- You can assemble the casserole ahead of time, cover it, and refrigerate it until you’re ready to bake. Add a little extra baking time if it goes into the oven cold.
