French Toast Casserole Recipe

0 Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
1 Add half the bread cubes to the dish. Sprinkle half the berries over the bread, then layer the rest of the bread and top with remaining berries.
2 In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, brown sugar, vanilla, almond extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until smooth.
3 Pour the custard evenly over the bread and berries.
4 Gently press the bread down with a spatula so everything gets coated.
5 Let it rest for about 30 minutes at room temperature if baking right away. When ready, preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
6 Uncover and bake for 45–55 minutes, until the top is golden and the center is set.
7 Let rest 10 minutes before serving.
8 Dust with powdered sugar and drizzle with maple syrup.
