An easy twist on my French Toast Casserole, this deliciously easy cranberry French toast casserole is as tasty as it is simple to make. I love a full spread of brunch and this baked French toast, with tart cranberry sauce, is perfect for Christmas morning. The cranberry flavor is perfect – not overwhelming, just right. Make this yummy French toast recipe the night before, pop it in the oven in the morning and your work is done!
Storing and Reheating Leftovers
Store any leftover cranberry French toast casserole in the refrigerator covered or in an airtight container for up to three days. Reheat it in the oven or in small portions in the microwave. Here is a brief overview of how to make this simple recipe. For the full recipe including all measurements, see the recipe card at the bottom of the post. To dry out the bread, start by cutting it into cubes. Then, you can either bake it on low (about 250 degrees Fahrenheit) or you can place it in a thin layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Leave the sheet out overnight, and by the morning the bread will be ready to use. Either quick cooking oats or old fashioned oats will work in this recipe. If you would prefer to use flour over oats, you can replace the 1/2 cup oats with 2/3 cup all-purpose flour. I recommend using an aluminum or disposable baking dish whenever you want to freeze a casserole. Glass or ceramic baking dishes can shatter in the oven if they go straight from a freezer to a hot oven. Uncover the casserole before baking. When baking from frozen, bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 minutes with the casserole covered. Then uncover and bake for an additional 50 minutes.
