How to make ahead French toast?

This is a great make ahead for school breakfasts since it’s so quick and easy to make. Matter of fact, growing up, I remember this being one of my mom’s favorite go-to recipes!

Work up to the final step of cooking them, then let them cool before store in a SINGLE layer in on a covered plate or an airtight container. TIP: Stacking the French toast bites may cause them to smash and not be as fluffy.

The next morning, heat them in the oven at 350F for about 6-10 minutes, or until warmed.

How to store leftover French Toast?

REFRIDGERATOR: Cover with foil or plastic wrap, or store in an airtight container in a SINGLE layer to prevent them from drying out.
Refrigerate within two hours after cooking.
FREEZER: Add a layer of the French toast bites to a freezer safe bag. Place a sheet of wax paper on top, then add the second layer of French toast bites, being careful not to smash them down. Seal and store in the freezer up to 1 month.
