King's Hawaiian Bread French Toast Casserole

Step 1

Generously butter a 9 x 13-inch baking dish. Cut the rolls or bread into cubes and place in the baking dish. Sprinkle the banana slices on top and gently toss. NOTE: Baking the bread at 350 degrees F for 10 minutes or until crispy before placing it in the baking pan will help it absorb the egg mixture.

Step 2

In a bowl, whisk together the milk and eggs. Stir in vanilla, sugar, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and coconut. Pour the egg mixture over the bread, cover and refrigerate overnight (or at least 30 minutes).

Step 3

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Sprinkle the top of the casserole with extra coconut if desired.

Step 4

Cover and bake for 30 minutes, uncover and bake for 15 minutes more. Casserole is done when a fork inserted in the center comes out clean.
