This French Toast bake is perfect for using up a loaf of stale sourdough! It’s great for serving a crowd at brunch since you can make it ahead of time and just bake it in the morning. It goes great with freshly whipped cream and some of Lepp’s double-smoked bacon, and you can use whatever fruit you like to enjoy it year-round.
