Ingredients

  • cooking spray

  • 1 loaf Texas toast

  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

  • ⅓ cup white sugar

  • 1 ½ cups mixed frozen berries, thawed and drained

  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

  • 8 large eggs

  • 1 ½ cups milk

  • ¾ cup maple syrup

  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

  1. Coat a 9x13-inch pan with cooking spray. Layer 1/2 of the bread in the pan.

  2. Beat cream cheese and sugar together with an electric mixer until creamy. Drop by teaspoonfuls over the bread. Layer mixed berries on top; layer on remaining bread. Sprinkle with cinnamon.

  3. Mix eggs, milk, maple syrup, butter, and vanilla extract together in a bowl and pour over bread. Press with a spatula to soak up mixture. Cover and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.

  4. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until golden and set, 45 to 50 minutes.

Cook's Note:

You can use fresh berries instead of frozen.
