not great...I would look elsewhere for a breakfast casserole. Dry and nothing special.

Definitely a keeper for our family. I've made this recipe twice - the first time I followed the recipe precisely, the second time I added an extra 1/2 cup of syrup and served with syrup on the side. We enjoyed the second time much, much more. Also, the first time we used maple syrup as called for in the recipe - so expensive and not worth it. Regular breakfast syrup tastes significantly better and costs a lot less.

I do have to admit, first off, that I'm basing this review on the reactions of others - I don't eat eggs because I just don't like the taste, so I don't eat french toast either. But, I made this for my annual Girlfriend's Holiday Brunch and it was raved over! I've passed this recipe on to others by popular demand...it's really easy to put together, too. Just a suggestion but, to get the best maple flavor, use grade-B syrup. It's somewhat less than the higher grades and has a deeper, richer flavor that's best for cooking.

I gave this recipe 3 stars strictly for the idea. The idea is great, now someone just needs to get it to work! After reading the reviews I had to change this recipe so much to make it work I won't be making it again. I added cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves just to give it "some" taste.

This had the consistency of a bread pudding...which I'm not a fan of. However, I had several people comment that they really liked it and one that wanted the recipe. SO, I guess it's a hit for some people, just not me.

Every year we have friends & their kids over for the weekend, and this has become our standard breakfast. It is SO good! Adults and kids just LOVE it! It does take a while to cook - but it is well worth the effort for me. I have been making it for years, and this year was thinking of adding a layer of fruit for a little twist. Thanks for sharing!

Absolutely delicious! It was so easy to make the night before and then just pop in the oven. So light and sweet and everyone loved it, even my hard-to-please grandmother. The leftovers were even better the next day. The only thing I would do differently is spread the cream cheese on the bread, even though the recipe says you don't have to.

Dessert for breakfast! This was super yummy, but I learned a couple of extras. Break the bread into 1 inch pieces, add lots of fun spices like cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and don't layer it too high. Mine was a little mushy in the middle, which didn't bother my friends, but I had to bake it quite a bit longer than instructed. Overall, yummy!

It was VERY bland and I had to cook it 20 minutes longer because it was not set after 45. My husband said this was the first thing I've made that he just could not eat. Doesn't taste like french toast at all.

This came out mushy like bread pudding. I wish I had read the reviews before I tried making it. I can't believe it is in my cookbook! It is nothing like french toast.

Good, but...in my opinion: too many eggs!! They overpowered the other flavors in many places. I'll make this again, but with 10 eggs, not 12.

I wasn't very impressed with this recipe. I didn't find it very flavourful at all, and I had even used flavoured cream cheese (cinnamon & brown sugar). My boyfriend didn't mind it, but he wasn't quite thrilled either.

I thought it was very yummy. I had to cook it longer because it was not cooked in the middle. I used cinnamon. It tasted like bread pudding. I thought the clumps of cream cheese were delicious! Overall, I was happy with it.

The rating is more out of personal preference. If you like bread-pudding type recipes, you'll probably enjoy this. Oddly enough, with all of this syrup, one of the consumers of the dish commented that he would have liked some more syrup to put on top.

I served this at Easter brunch and my family loved it! Everyone couldn’t wait to dig in, as it looked very pretty and impressive as I took it out of the oven. It puffed up and was nice and golden brown. I only used 1.5 cups of syrup (that's all I had) and it was plenty sweet, no one added any to their serving. I also choose not to spread the cream cheese as others had suggested and was glad…for one it made it easier to make and second I thought it made it look prettier. I also sprinkled cinnamon on each of the layers. I was worried that it would be soggy as others had complained but mine turned out more what I would call fluffy, not soggy. Also, as for the portions… recipe said it served 8 but with 5 adults and 2 kids we only ate a little less than half. Of course we had other items but I will only make half for the same number of people next time. I will definitely make this again and so will some of the guest I served it to.

I too, wish I had read the reviews prior to preparing this dish for Easter brunch. It was very mushy in the middle, too crispy around the edges and bottom and had little flavor. No one in my family was thrilled with this one, in fact many good humored jokes were made at it's expense. Thankfully I halved the recipe, less to throw out.

I wish we would have read the reviews before we made this recipe...I believe it would have turned out better if we would have spread the cream cheese on the french bread. This recipe was delicious. It tasted more like a dessert than a meal. It was very sweet. I will make it again, but I will be sure to have something else to go with it.

I was disappointed with this recipe. I usually read the reveiws before trying out a recipe but with this one I didn't. I probably wouldn't have tried it. The bread was very mushy. And the taste was bland. My children eat about anything and didn't care for this one either.
