Freezer French Toast

Freezer French Toast - sandwich style white bread dipped in a mixture of beaten eggs and milk, cooked and served with plenty of butter and maple syrup. This is the perfect recipe to enjoy with the family on a relaxing weekend. Freezing tips and how to reheat frozen french toast included so you can enjoy this easy recipe on busy mornings during the week.

One of my favorite breakfasts to enjoy is French Toast. Nothing fancy like the Texas Toast French Toast Casserole, or my Overnight French Toast Casserole, but good old fashioned French toast served with pure maple syrup.

Can you Freeze French Toast

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.

I also like to make extra freezer French toast to use on busy mornings. All we need to do is pull a few slices from the freezer, reheat in the microwave and breakfast is ready!

Frozen French Toast

French Toast is usually a Saturday breakfast for our family.  I always try to make extra so I can freeze the leftovers to use during the week.

This freezer French toast recipe was very helpful when my children were younger. They loved a warm breakfast before school.

• Electric Griddle - you can easily cook this on top of the stove in a frying pan or cast iron pan. I love using my electric skillet though because it's fast and I can get a lot of bread slices on it.
• Aqua Melamine Plates - These are so pretty and perfect to serve breakfast, brunch or even dessert on and make the table look pretty too.
• Pioneer Woman Cloth Napkins - okay, not a kitchen tool, but I love how easy these cloth napkins wash. And they never need ironing. Another huge plus for me!

Ingredients

• Sliced White Bread - I like to use "cheap" sandwich bread. You know the kind of sandwich bread you can get for around $1.00? In my opinion, this makes the best French Toast.
• Eggs
• Milk - I have made this recipe with whole, 2% and even skim milk. I prefer using whole milk.
• Cooking oil spray or butter
• Cinnamon/sugar mixture - you can use a store-bought mixture or make it homemade.

Directions

Step 1: Prepare the Egg Mixture

Mix together the eggs and milk. Dip the slices of white bread into the egg mixture.

Step 2: Cook French Toast in Electric Skillet

Place the slices of bread onto a hot electric skillet or stove top griddle that's been coated in melted butter.

Sprinkle the bread with the cinnamon/sugar mixture before flipping to continue cooking on the other side.

Step 3: 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. 
• Another delicious way is to serve the French toast with either Homemade Strawberry Sauce or Homemade Blueberry Sauce. 

Step 4 : How to Freeze French Toast

• 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.

Step 5: 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 freezer 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!
