Tried this recipe?Let us know how it was!
I tried the blueberry french toast casserole for a group breakfast and it was a huge hit! Everyone was asking me for the recipe. You can’t go wrong with this dish.
I made this for Christmas morning and it was delicious.
I love this recipe, I made it last night for breakfast this morning. The smell of French toast was already wacting through the house. The next time I make it instead of layering the bread and then pouring in the egg mixture I am probably going to let the bread soak into the egg mixture for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally that way all the pieces have a chance to absorb some of the bread, as I found the bottom was very moist and casserole-y. I think it will help distribute the moisture.
Can you make this and freeze the left overs sounds great but it’s just me and my grandpa
Made this last night, and out turned out so good. It isn’t overly sweet, and worked fine with fresh blueberries. I think it would be great with mixed frozen berries too!
Hi. This looks so good. I want to double the recipe but not sure if I should use 2 crockpots or will it be ok to put in one. Have you done this in the oven?
I made this, and it does “puff” a bit as it cooks. I would say 2 crockpots for a double recipe.
How big was your slow cooker? I’m wanting to make this for 10-12 adults.
How big was your loaf size?
I made it last night for today, and used a 16oz (standard bakery) sized loaf. It was perfect!
Can you tell me how many hours to cook this on high? Or if I can cook it in the oven instead and then transfer it to the crockpot for serving.
