Equipment

Ingredients

1 1/2 loaves brioche, cubed
8 large eggs
3 cups whole milk
2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp fine sea salt
2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup unsalted butter cubes, room temperature
1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
Softened butter for greasing the Crockpot

Instructions

Gather the ingredients.
In a bowl, combine the eggs, milk, spices, salt, and vanilla extract. Set aside.
Place half of the bread cubes in a large bowl and pour half of the egg mixture on top. Gently stir to coat the bread cubes. Repeat with the remaining cubed bread and egg mixture.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the soaked bread cubes for at least 4 hours.
For the topping, mix the cubed butter and brown sugar. Cover and chill in the fridge.
Grease the Crockpot insert with some softened butter. Add the soaked bread cubes to the bottom, spreading them out evenly.
Top with the brown sugar mixture. Cover and cook on Low for 7 hours.
Let your French toast casserole cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

Use stale bread to avoid a soggy French toast casserole! If you only have fresh loaves, cut them into cubes, spread them out on a baking sheet, and place them in the oven at 170°F for 15 minutes or 10 minutes at 250°F
Don't have 7 hours to spare? Cook your slow cooker French toast casserole on High for 3 to 4 hours.
Store leftover Crockpot French toast in an airtight food storage container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet over medium heat before serving.
