What Type Of Bread To Use

I suggest you use a a sturdy bread like becuase it will hold up well during the long cooking process without becoming too soggy. Peronaly, I like to use French bread for this slow cooker breakfast recipe. In addition to French bread, other suggestions include brioche, or challad bread. Fresh bread is not preferred. Day-old stale bread works best when making a crockpot French toast casserole. 

How To Serve This

Crockpot French toast casserole is best served warm. Garnish with your favorite toppings like syrup, powdered sugar, nuts, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.

FAQs & Tips

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • Use ripe bananas to add a natural sweetness. 
  • Be sure to spray the inside of the slow cooker generously before adding the food.
  • Check the French toast towards the end of the cooking time to prevent it from overcooking.
  • This recipe uses a 3.5-quart slow cooker. Feeding a larger crowd? Double the recipe and use a larger 6-quart slow cooker!
  • The bread mixture will not be fully submersed in the liquid mixture. That’s okay. Just make sure all the bread pieces are wet. I did that by pressing the bread down lightly with a fork after pouring the egg/milk mixture in.
  • This will look like a fluffy bread pudding-souffle. It should brown nicely, especially around the edges. You’ll know it’s done when you stick a knife in the middle and it comes out clean. Mine takes the full 6 hours on low but my 3.5 quart slow cooker heats on the low end. It all depends on your slow cooker.

I loved this! I used cinnamon swirl bread, and left out honey and banana, it turned out great! I think with every recipe you have to just tweak it to your liking, right? It was a hit, and we make this a lot! thanks for the recipe and inspiration :)
