A new recipe from a blog (owlhaven.wordpress.com) - it's great because you make it the night before, then cook it in the morning. So tasty! Definitely a new tradition.
STUFFED FRENCH TOAST STRATA
1 pound of French bread, cubed (about 12 cups)
8 ounce package cream cheese, cubed
8 eggs
2 1/2 cups milk
6 tablespoons butter, melted1/4 cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon cinnamon
To Assemble: In greased 13x9 inch baking pan, place half of the bread cubes.
Top with the cream cheese cubes and then the remaining bread cubes.
With a blender or mixing bowl with a rotary beater, mix together the eggs, milk, melted butter, maple syrup and cinnamon until well combined. Pour the egg mixture evenly over bread and cheese cubes. Using a spatula, slightly press layers down to moisten.
Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 to 24 hours.
Remove plastic wrap and bake in a 325 degree oven for 40-45 minutes or until the center appears to be set and the eggs are golden. Let stand for 10 minutes. Makes 6-8 servings.
Note: May add blueberries after the cream cheese and serve with blueberry syrup.
