About

Why has no one ever tried this before?! A French toast casserole, but with pancakes! It's brilliant! Tall Stack Casserole has layers of fluffy pancakes soaked in a rich and creamy custard and baked until set and tender. Then it's served with butter and maple syrup, the great pancake partners, so each bite is sweet, filling, and decadent! Tall Stack Casserole is a bread pudding you can eat in the morning! And that sounds pretty good to us!
