I love French toast and this Slow Cooker French Toast Casserole is one of my favorites. Prepare it the night before then add it to the slow cooker in the morning.
This breakfast is one of my favorites. It does take some time so be prepared for that but trust me it is well worth it. The best part is all the work is done he night before. So don't worry about doing a lot of prep in the morning. If you would rather bake your casserole then check out my recipe for Baked French Toast Casserole.
How to make Slow Cooker French Toast Casserole:
Step one: Start by preheating your oven to 300 degrees F. Dice bread into cubes and then place a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside to cool.
- Tip: Don't skip baking your bread. Using fresh soft bread for this recipe will cause your casserole to be really soggy. You could also use stale bread in the place of cooking it.
Step two: Next use a large mixing bowl to whisk together eggs, half and half, and milk. Add in sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt. Then whisk it all together well.
Step three: Place toasted bread in your egg mixture and place in the fridge to sit overnight.
Step four: In the morning pour your french toast casserole into your slow cooker. and cook on high for 2 ½ - 3 hours until cooked throughout.
Step five: Use a large spoon to scoop and serve. Optional: top your casserole wih powdered sugar or maple syrup.
Tips:
Add walnuts or raisins to this recipe to give it a little something extra.
For easy clean up you can spray your slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray.
