📝 Preparation Steps
1
Prepare the crock liner: Grease the insert of a 6-quart slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray, or use a slow cooker liner for easy cleanup.
2
Cut the bread into cubes: Slice the bread into 1 ½” cubes and add them to the slow cooker insert in an even layer.
3
Prepare the custard mixture: In a large mixing bowl whisk the eggs until well beaten. Then add in the half & half, cinnamon, vanilla extract, salt, and half of the brown sugar. Whisk until smooth.

4
Pour the custard mixture over the bread cubes, pressing them into the liquid to ensure they are evenly soaked with no dry spots remaining.
5
Soak the bread cubes: Let the bread absorb the liquid for at least ⏱️ 20 minutes before cooking. Alternatively, you can remove the slow cooker insert, cover it with foil, and allow it to soak overnight in the fridge.
6
Right before cooking, sprinkle the remaining brown sugar over the top of the casserole.
7
Place the insert in the slow cooker and place the lid on top.
8
Cook on “high” for ⏱️ 2 hours, or on “low” for ⏱️ 4 hours. You will know the baked French toast is done when the center is set and firm to the touch Note: Do not open the lid while cooking. If you do, add another ⏱️ 20 minutes to the cooking time for each time the lid is removed.
9
Carefully remove the lid, quickly turning it upside down to avoid splashing the finished casserole with water due to condensation.
10
Serve and enjoy: Scoop portions onto serving plates and garnish with optional fresh berries, powdered sugar, maple syrup, or whipped cream.
