What is Overnight French Toast?

Prepared the night before and cooked the next morning, this easy overnight French toast is perfect for a cold winter morning, a lazy weekend mornings, or as an easy, make-ahead Christmas morning breakfast.

How do you make Overnight French Toast?

With just a little bit of preparation the night before you and your guests will enjoy this delicious breakfast the next morning.

• Start by mixing together your eggs, milk, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla.
• Use a thick bread such as French bread or sour dough, about 3/4 ” thick.
• Place your slices of bread on a 10 x 15 baking sheet (that has sides on it)
• Slowly pour the batter over the bread.  Turn the bread so that it is coated on both sides.

• Cover with wax paper and refrigerate overnight.
• The next morning,  melt butter in a skillet and slowly fry the bread over medium heat.  Cook until golden brown on both sides.

Mix up a batch of cinnamon syrup or buttermilk syrup and greet your family or guests with a delicious breakfast.
