French Toast Strata image

This is a good recipe to use when company comes or when you are entertaining for brunch. Sometimes, I add dried apricots, snipped into small pieces. The apple syrup (in database) is very good with this too. Prep time includes 8 hours in refrigerator.

The strata was a bit dry. I think I would add more milk or cream next time.

This strata was a bit too eggy for my taste. I think I would use less eggs next time.

I've made this strata several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. It's a great way to use up leftover bread, and it's also a very affordable dish. I usually make it with whatever fruit I have on hand, and it's always delicious.

This French toast strata was a hit with my family! It was easy to make and tasted delicious. I used a combination of white and wheat bread, and I added some fresh berries to the top. It was the perfect breakfast for a lazy Sunday morning.
