Oven French Toast

Oven French Toast

Oven French toast is an easy & convenient way to have a hot breakfast any day of the week.  I usually make a double recipe in about 30 minutes and freeze it.  I serve it with bacon or sausage that I cook, store in the refrigerator and reheat over the next 2-3 days.  My kids love this recipe!

Ingredients

5 Eggs

1 1/4 cups of Milk(We use unsweetened Almond milk due to my son's dairy allergy.  It comes out great!)

1/2 teaspoon salt-optional

1 tablespoon cinnamon-optional but recommended

16 Slices of bread(I've used white & whole wheat, both are yummy!)

Preheat over to 500°.  Grease or spray several baking sheets.  In a shallow dish mix all ingredients except the bread.  Dip each piece of bread into the mixture and arrange on baking sheets.  Bake for approximately 5 minutes or until underside is slightly golden.  Flip slices and put back in the oven another 3-5 minutes until slightly golden.  Watch them carefully to prevent burning!

To Freeze:  Cool completely.  Tear off several pieces of wax paper, enough for four slices.  Using clean scissors, cut wax paper into 4 equal pieces.  Starting with wax paper, layer wax paper & slices to prevent them from becoming frozen together.  Repeat process until all French toast is gone.  Place 4 stacks of 4-5 pieces into a gallon sized freezer bag.  Label & Freeze.  You may also use the flash freeze method, eliminating the need for wax paper.

To Serve:  Place in a 375° oven on an ungreased baking sheet.  Heat until hot, 8-10 minutes.  Or you may simply pop a smaller amount into the toaster or toaster oven.
