- Cook on high for 1 1/2 to 2 hours or on low for 3 to 4 hours. You know your casserole is done when the edges begin to brown and pull away from the edges of the crockpot. Mine is done at 3 hours, but slow cookers vary in their temperature and cooking time.
- Cut, serve, and enjoy with powdered sugar and syrup.
Notes
You are looking for approximately 10 cups of dried bread cubes. If you buy a 16 ounce loaf of French bread, cut it into cubes, and dry overnight, you can use all of that. You can also put the fresh soft cubes onto parchment-lined baking sheets and bake for 30 minutes at 250 degrees (toss halfway through baking) and use right away.
