1 pkg cream cheese
1 dozen eggs beaten
1 cup milk
1 cup REAL maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla, healthy dash of ginger and nutmeg
1 loaf white bread, cubed. (Now here's the tricky part -- you need something dense -- don't skimp on the bread. I like Pepperidge Farms white bread.) If you decide to use something different I'd use only 3/4's of it.
1 finely sliced or diced green apple (roll in brown sugar/cinnamon)
Cinnamon & Sugar mixture (about 1 1/2 cups)
In a mixing bowl ... mix the beaten eggs, milk, syrup and vanilla. Cube bread, throw in bowl and squish EVERYTHING (including apple) together. Pour in to 9 X 13 heavily greased pan. Place random, small blobs of cream cheese in mixture. Top with COPIOUS amount of cinnamon/sugar mixture. (Again, don't skimp.) Place overnight in 'fridge.
Bake at 350 for 30 minutes covered. And another 20-30 mins uncovered. The casserole needs ample time to set up -- so give yourself an hour. Serve with more maple syrup. Go in to cardiac arrest.
