Step 2

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a large casserole dish with the soft butter.

Step 3

Arrange the waffles and berries in the prepared casserole dish.

Step 4

In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with the half-and-half, maple syrup, sugar, cinnamon and vanilla extract to combine.

Step 5

Pour the egg custard evenly over the waffles. Press any waffles that are exposed at the surface down into the custard. Let sit for 15 minutes to allow the waffles to absorb the custard.

Step 6

Bake until the custard is set and the surface is golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve warm, immediately.
