This make-ahead Overnight Cinnamon Bread French Toast<\/strong> is perfect with berries and maple syrup. Plus it will garner rave reviews from everyone who partakes!<\/em><\/p>\n Starting with cinnamon bread gives this easy brunch casserole<\/strong> a delicious head start, plus it can be prepped the night before for an easy, elegant breakfast treat.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n First up, I\u2019m sharing this old brunch favorite, Overnight Cinnamon Bread French Toast. When my youngest, a college junior, was home for spring break, he spent two full days volunteering to fulfill his EMT class requirement. One day was in a hospital ER and the other was to ride along with paramedics (where he had to perform CPR on his first run!). I knew he\u2019d need a hearty breakfast.<\/p>\n If you\u2019re looking for other sweet breakfast casseroles, my family adores this caramel-bottomed Creme Brulee French Toast<\/a> as well as this berry-laden\u00a0Raspberry Mascarpone French Toast Casserole<\/a>.<\/p>\n Stratas and French toast casseroles assembled the night before and baked right from the fridge are a dream for any hostess. This recipe has the option to bake right away or to park, covered, in the refrigerator, and bake off the next morning.<\/p>\n Served with berries and maple syrup or just a dusting of powdered sugar and a few strawberry slices, it will be a brunch dish you\u2019ll want to make again and again.<\/p>\n Yes, this casserole can be made the night before you bake it. Cover the dish with plastic wrap after assembling, and refrigerate overnight. Let it sit out at room temperature for half an hour before baking to take the chill off. Remove the plastic before placing it in the oven. Add about 30 minutes to baking time, checking after the hour mark.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n There are a number of reasons you can have soggy overnight French toast. You may have added too much soaking liquid, or there may be too much milk or cream in your mixture. Your bread may not be sturdy enough. It also may not be fully cooked.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Stay in touch through social media\u00a0@\u00a0Instagram<\/a>,\u00a0Facebook<\/a>, and\u00a0Pinterest<\/a>.

It will need some additional baking time if the pan still feels cold when you place it in the oven.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n As an Amazon Associate and member of other affiliate programs, I earn from qualifying purchases.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n 6<\/span><\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n 1<\/span><\/p>\n Amount Per Serving:<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n \t\tCalories:<\/span> 903<\/span>Total Fat:<\/span> 46g<\/span>Saturated Fat:<\/span> 27g<\/span>Trans Fat:<\/span> 1g<\/span>Unsaturated Fat:<\/span> 16g<\/span>Cholesterol:<\/span> 301mg<\/span>Sodium:<\/span> 554mg<\/span>Carbohydrates:<\/span> 109g<\/span>Fiber:<\/span> 4g<\/span>Sugar:<\/span> 77g<\/span>Protein:<\/span> 15g<\/span>\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n![\"](\"https:\/\/www.thatskinnychickcanbake.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Overnight-Cinnamon-Bread-French-Toast-7-819x1024-1.jpg\"\/ "\\"Overnight")
