Definitely a keeper! EVERYONE thoroughly enjoyed this for Christmas morning brunch! Inasmuch as I LOVE maple syrup, I enjoyed this without the syrup. Sides of pepperocini and/or pickled asparagus compliment this recipe. As a leftover, I enjoyed it warm or straight out of the frig ... GREAT finger food! lol

I felt this recipe had too much bread in it. I would have liked it more custardy and I'm not sure I like the choice of cheddar cheese in here. If I make this again, I might try another kind of cheese and definitely cut the bread down by at least a 1/3. Somehow the flavors in this recipe just didn't come together for me like I expected they would.

This is unusual and good. My friends liked it better than I did. I only used 1/2 the amount of cheese and just poured some maple syrup on it right out of the oven for a little sweetner. That's easier than serving it separately.

We didn't like this much at all. It was too bready. Like bread pudding with sausage and apples. The flavors just didn't blend well or mesh with our tastes.

We were disappointed. It sounded so delicious, but the end result seemed bland and my family did not like very much. Noone ate the leftovers. I did follow one user's recommendation and tried it using cinnamon raisin bread, but other than that I followed the recipe. I don't know what might have gone wrong, because it sure sounded good -- but didn't taste at all like what I had anticipated.

This was absolutely delicious. I made a few variations. Cooked sausage links, chopped up and added an extra cup. I also added extra apples, sugar and cinamon, 1 cup of chopped walnuts and some nutmeg. I used three kinds of bread, french, cinamon and wheat. I only used 1/2 of the cheese that was called for. I made it the night before and stored it in the fridge until I baked it the next morning. It came out awesome!

This was my first attempt at a Breakfast Casserole and it turned out great! I used twice the apples, Jimmy Dean Maple flavored sausage and used raisin bread instead of French bread, as another reviewer had suggested. I drizzled maple syrup over mine as I have a SWEET tooth. My boyfriend - who is more for savory - preferred his without syrup and had THREE helpings. He LOVED this, haha. I will be making this again, I may even add some raisins next time as they were sooooo good in the bread. This dish did taste best once it "sat" for about 15-20 mins out off the oven. Looking forward to having this again on Christmas morning, thanks.

This was fantastic. I wanted a different spin on the typical breakfast casserole and when I saw this one I had to try it. Everyone loved it! I drizzled some syrup over the top before serving it. I also used granny smith apples instead of Golden Delicious. I will be making this again.
