After a lot of testing, this is the French toast casserole I keep coming back to. It’s soft, custardy (but never mushy!) and topped with a caramelized brown sugar streusel topping that tastes like it came straight from a bakery. Prep it the night before or bake it right away, this is a guaranteed crowd pleaser! Recipe includes a how-to video!
French toast casserole is my go-to make-ahead breakfast for holidays and busy mornings. It’s soft and custardy (never soggy!), richly flavored, and topped with a buttery brown sugar cinnamon streusel for insanely flavorful results. You can prep it in advance to bake the next day, or make it the same day, it’s just as good either way.
