Freezer French Toast

A classic recipe for Freezer French Toast that’s perfect for busy mornings or a relaxing weekend. I’m including freezing tips to help you enjoy this easy recipe even on the busiest of mornings trying to get everyone out of the house. It’s so easy, the kids can heat it up themselves while you’re getting ready. 

Freezer French Toast

Freezer French Toast is an easy way to enjoy French toast on busy mornings. This is a classic recipe that your family is going to love!

One of my favorite breakfasts to enjoy is French Toast. Nothing fancy like the French Toast Casserole that is so popular here on the blog, but just good old-fashioned sandwich bread dipped in an egg and milk mixture, sprinkled with some cinnamon/sugar. Once the French toast is cooked, I like to top it with warm syrup and maybe just a little bit of butter.

I also like to make extra to freeze so on busy mornings all we need to do is pull a few slices of already made French Toast from the freezer and breakfast is ready!

Classic Family Recipe

By the way, not only do I enjoy French Toast, but my family does as well.  However, sometimes it can be a lot of work to get French Toast on the table, especially when you’re trying to get everyone ready and out the door to school, work or even church on Sunday mornings.

French Toast is usually a Saturday breakfast for our family.  Most of the time, I mix together too much egg mixture and never know what to do with the extra, but not anymore.

Let’s Get Cooking!

How to Serve French Toast

• Serve the French toast immediately with a little butter and, of course, syrup.
• We like our syrup warmed in the microwave for a few minutes. 
• Subsequently, you can always serve the French toast with either Homemade Strawberry Sauce or Homemade Blueberry Sauce. 

How to Freeze French Toast

In addition to this being an amazingly delicious recipe, you can also freeze the French toast. Sometimes I like to make extra so I can have leftovers to freeze. This was very helpful when my children were younger, especially my son. He loved a warm breakfast before school. My daughter was a completely different story. 

• Lay your leftover French Toast in a single layer on a baking sheet that’s been covered in either waxed paper, parchment paper or even aluminum foil.
• Next, place the tray in the freezer.
• Leave the tray in the freezer for about 30 to 40 minutes.
• Remove the FROZEN French Toast slices and place in a freezer safe bag.

How to Reheat Frozen French Toast

• The next time you’re having a busy morning, just pull a few slices out of the freezer and heat up in the microwave.
• You can also reheat the frozen bread slices in the toaster or on a baking sheet placed in a preheated 350 degree oven.
• Serve as usual with butter and syrup.

Once you prepare and freeze French toast this way, you’ll see how easy it is to reheat and prepare for breakfast on busy mornings.  Even the kids can help themselves to breakfast!
