Cinnamon Bread Morning Casserole

Submitted by jb41848

"I had this some time ago and hadn't had it in years. I came across it in my cookbook and thought I would post it here. My SIL's aunt made this for her baby shower and it was absolutely delicious. I hope you enjoy it as well. Bev's Cinnamon Sunrise Bread is the one that I used this last time and it came out amazing."

Oh delish! I made this for Christmas Day breakfast and it was well received. Since there were only 4 of us eating, I put half the mixture into freezer/oven proof dish to enjoy again later. Using low-fat cream cheese and skim milk, it was still so tempting to keep nibbling. Very souffle-like and enjoyable! Next time, I'll add some raisins to at least half. Thanks jb4!

I gave this recipe 4 stars. I made this for our Christmas morning breakfast. My family really liked this recipe. When I made this I used cinnamon raisin bread. I will make this again for sure! Thanks for posting a great recipe! Christine
