Can this Croissant French Toast Casserole be made in advance?

Yes! It can be prepared the night before and then baked in the morning. You can also make it right before baking if that’s easier for you. Letting it sit overnight will result in a softer texture once baked, but it’s all what you prefer. Totally up to you!

Can French Toast Casserole be frozen?

Yes! I love that this easy Berries and Cream French Toast Bake can be made ahead, frozen, and then thawed and served when you’re ready. Talk about convenient! Here are our tips if you’d like to freeze this recipe:

To freeze:

• Bake according to the recipe
• Allow to cool completely
• Once cooled, wrap fully (in dish) in two layers of plastic wrap and then one layer of foil.
• Freeze up to three months

To reheat:

• Allow to thaw overnight in the fridge
• Remove plastic wrap and cover once more in foil
• Heat in the oven for approximately 20 minutes (covered) at 350F or until heated through to your liking
• To cook from frozen, remove plastic wrap and cover with foil, and then bake at 350F for one hour
• NOTE: Of the two options, I prefer it reheated AFTER thawing best
