How to Make Bagel French Toast Casserole
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Cut 6 bagels in half and spread each half evenly with 4 ounces Laughing Cow cheese.
- Cut each bagel half into 8 pieces and arrange cut-side down in a greased 8x8 inch baking pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs (or equivalent egg substitute), 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/4 cup pure maple syrup.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bagels in the baking pan. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup chopped pecans.
- Cover the dish with foil and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4 hours).
- 30 minutes before baking, remove the casserole from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature.
- Place the covered casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes.
- Uncover the casserole, sprinkle liberally with 2 tablespoons cinnamon sugar, and bake for an additional 20-30 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden brown.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Drizzle with extra warmed maple syrup, if desired.
