Ingredients

5 cups bread cubes
1.5 cups milk
4 large eggs
0.25 cup white sugar, divided
0.25 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon margarine, softened
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8 inch baking pan. Gather all ingredients for the French toast casserole.
Arrange the bread cubes in a single layer at the bottom of the prepared baking pan.
In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, 2 tablespoons of sugar, salt, and vanilla extract until well combined. Pour the mixture evenly over the bread cubes, stirring gently to coat. Dot the top with butter and let stand for 15 minutes to allow the bread to soak up the custard.
In a small bowl, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar with the ground cinnamon. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the top of the casserole.
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 45 to 50 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden brown.
Let the casserole cool slightly before serving. Enjoy this delicious French toast casserole!
