Generously grease a 2-quart casserole dish* with soft butter. Place cubed Hawaiian rolls in pan.

Combine diced apples with 1 tablespoon of sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Toss to coat apples with sugar mixture. Sprinkle apples on top of bread.

To make the crumble, combine flour, brown sugar and cinnamon in a medium size bowl. Stir well. Add the softened butter and mix with a fork until large crumbs form. If mixture is too moist to form crumbs, add more flour 1 tablespoon at a time, stirring well after each addition, until crumbs form. (You shouldn’t need more than 2 tablespoons of flour.) Cover crumbs with plastic wrap and refrigerate until just before baking French toast.

In the morning (or at least 6 hours later), remove casserole and crumble mixture from refrigerator. Preheat oven to 350˚F.

Place casserole on a sheet pan** and sprinkle crumble mixture evening over the top. Bake (on sheet pan**) for 30 minutes, then cover loosely with foil and bake another 15-20 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with powdered sugar or serve with maple syrup - or both!
