I first sampled this french toast recipe during a class at the Viking Cooking School, and this easy casserole has since become one of my favorite recipes for weekend entertaining. The recipe calls for cubed white bread, but I've also made it with leftover French bread, Italian bread or brioche with equally delicious results. The cream cheese and maple syrup in the custard base add richness to the dish.
