"Very easy to make and delicious. Make it up the day before and set in refrigerator over night. This is a great recipe from a great southern cook, Paula Deen."

  1. I've made this for years - I'm wondering if anyone has made it in individual muffin tins?

  1. This was a HIT this morning!!! It wasn't too sweet and was so fast and easy to make! If maple syrup were cheaper, I'd make it every weekend! I used day old store-bought French bread, cut into 15 slices. I layered it a 9x13 glass casserole dish (3 rows of 5 slices). I added a tsp of vanilla and some cinnamon and nutmeg (eyeballed the amount) into the egg mixture. Instead of 2 cups of pecans, I cut it down to 1/2 cup and it was the perfect amount. I posted a picture of my casserole to show how I layered it. I would have liked to garnish it with powdered sugar. I served this with sausage patties and fresh sliced strawberries. This is a keeper! Thank you!

  2. I only had enough bread to make a half recipe, and since I didn't have a small enough casserole dish, I crumbled the bread into the batter and spooned the mixture into well-greased muffin tins. I filled the cups 2/3 full with the batter, then divided the topping among them. Half a batch makes about 8-10 muffins, and the cooking time is around 35-40 minutes.

  3. This may be a good recipe but you cannot call this Paula Deen's French Toast Casserole! I've done some double checking and this recipe is not Paula Deen's. I've made the actual Paula Deen French Toast Casserole and there are huge differences between the two recipes. Paula Deen's website has the original recipe on it.

  4. Love this recipe! I make a lot. I don't use French bread. I buy the apple cinnamon bread from the Amish market. I cube the bread. I also add chocolate chips. My family loves it!

  5. Excellent flavor. The texture is just right. I actually skipped the topping cause I couldn't bring myself to pile on the butter like that,(though I'm sure it's fabulous!) but it still tasted great with a little maple syrup on top. Thanks for posting!

  1. I'm a bit unsure of this dish...I made it by the recipe except I used 1 cup of walnuts instead of pecans and added a bit of vanilla to it. It smelled amazing and looked beautiful...that is about the only great thing about it. I It baked hard on top, and soggy on the bottom. It was also far too sweet as well. I thought maybe I did something wrong but I think it is lacking some ingredients, has a far too much sugar in it, and the baking instructions are also a bit off(maybe cover with foil?). This is labeled as a Paula Deen recipe but couldn't find this exact recipe to compare on her website. Needless to say I was quite disappointed but I do see the potential in this recipe...its just not at a 5 stars yet.

  2. This is a fantastic recipe all I changed was instead of using regular inch thick bread, I used cinnamon swirled bread! FABULOUS!

  3. I first made this last Christmas but lost the recipe. I am so glad to find it here!! This is one of the best recipes for baked French toast. We used French bread cubes instead of the slices and added cinnamon and nutmeg to both mixes. YUM!!! We never have any leftovers. Very easy and fast.
