OVERNIGHT STRAWBERRY CREAM CHEESE FRENCH TOAST W/AMARETTO CREAM TOPPING

I love french toast, but don’t like making it the regular way because by the time I get to sit down to eat, everyone else is usually already done! I have made several other overnight baked recipes that have been delicious but are really sweet. I have also tried a few recipes that end up being a little bit soggy, even after they are baked which I am not a big fan of! This recipe has a touch of sweetness with the cream cheese and cream topping (which is the most delicious whipped cream I’ve ever tasted!), but it isn’t too rich or sweet (making it easier to eat more)! I was also very excited to find that the end result was not soggy at all – it bakes perfectly!

Overnight Strawberry Cream Cheese French Toast

Slice a loaf of french bread into 1 inch slices and then spread cream cheese between each set of 2 slices, making little cream cheese sandwiches. Place the sandwiches in a greased 9X13 pan.

Mix together:
4 eggs
1 cup milk
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cinnamon

Beat the mixture for a couple of minutes and then pour it over the bread and let it sit for 5-10 minutes and then turn the sandwiches over. Cover pan and refrigerate overnight. The next morning, bake at 400 for 25-30 minutes.

Amaretto Cream Topping

1 pint whipping cream
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp. amaretto or almond flavoring (I used almond and it made the whipping cream sooooo yummy! I will be adding this every time I make whipped cream in the future!)

Serve french toast with strawberries (sugared if you prefer) and the whipped topping. Enjoy!

FRENCH TOAST BAKE

I don’t know about your family but mine loves breakfast – for any meal. We have an obsession with breakfast ha-ha. A lot of “breakfast” meals take some time but not this one. I made this in less than 5 minutes, let it set overnight and baked it in the morning. The best breakfast ever. I would seriously love to hug the person who came up with this idea. My family and I thank you!! This would even be great for a crowd – unless your family can eat a whole pan by themselves. 😉

French Toast Bake

Adapted from allrecipes

1 loaf of bread, diced (really any bread)
8 eggs
2 C milk
1 C heavy whipping cream
2 tsp vanilla
1 tsp cinammon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
3/4 C butter
1 1/3 C brown sugar
1 C flour

Grease 13×9 pan really well.

Arrange the slices of bread in the bottom of pan. In a large bowl beat together eggs, milk, cream, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Pour over bread slices. Cover with saran wrap and refrigerate overnight.

The next morning preheat oven to 350. In a microwave safe bowl place butter, brown sugar and flour into microwave and heat in 30 second up to one minute intervals, stirring between each one, until mixture is completely melted. Pour over bread and egg mixture and spread evenly (if needed).

Bake in preheated oven uncovered for 45-60 minutes, longer depending on how crisp you like it.

Let it cool for 5 minutes before cutting.
