1 loaf day-old French bread
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
2 cups milk
12 eggs
2 cups maple syrup
Recipe
Slice the loaf of French bread into about 25 slices, and set aside. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk and maple syrup. Place enough slices of bread onto the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish to cover. Drop 2 teaspoons or so of cream cheese onto each slice. You do not need to spread the cheese. Repeat layering with bread slices, and cream cheese until the dish is filled to the top. Slowly pour the egg mixture over the layers, so it doesn't run over the sides. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
The next morning, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F . Bake casserole for 45 minutes, or until set and golden.
