How to make the EASIEST Brioche French Toast – perfectly golden on the outside, yet still soft, sweet, and buttery on the inside.

 

The EASIEST Brioche French Toast

This Brioche French Toast recipe is perfect for Mother’s Day, Sunday brunch, Christmas morning, or any time you feel like having French Toast just because.

When we were kids and had a choice between French Toast and waffles, we almost always chose French Toast on the weekends. Waffles were a quick morning breakfast because they could be ready in minutes during the week. But French Toast, that was something special. Now, you can have either waffles or french toast for a quick morning breakfast!

Unlike our cinnamon French Toast, our Brioche French Toast is thicker and more hearty. Brioche is made with more eggs and butter, which gives it that rich flavor with a soft and light texture. It feels truly indulgent, yet we have made it into a healthier option for any day of the week.

The best part is this breakfast that reminds us of Sunday morning is ready in just minutes! Can you think of a better way to start your Monday?

Dress it up!

One of our favorite things about French Toast is the endless combination of toppings! More often than not, we will stick with butter and maple syrup as we did for Mom this year. However, sometimes we are feeling a little more spunky and want to deviate. That’s when we reach for things like sauteed bananas, powdered sugar, nut butter, and jelly, or even whipped cream! These toppings are almost always put out as a spread when we serve the Brioche French Toast to guests or on a holiday. You choose what you enjoy most and roll with it!

The ingredients list couldn’t get much shorter. You’re welcome. 😉

 

Ingredients

  • Brioche French Toast
  • Fresh Berries
  • Butter
  • Optional: maple syrup, powdered sugar, jelly, nut butter, etc.

In addition to the fruit and maple syrup, you could also serve this with breakfast sausages, bacon, hashbrowns, etc. Forget Sunday breakfast spots, you can now enjoy a full spread right in the comfort of your own home.

Mixed Berry Baked French Toast Casserole

French Toast is one of our favorite weekend brunches. But there are just some times when we crave a good baked French Toast during the week. That’s where this Mixed Berry French Toast Casserole steps in! It is made with just 6 ingredients, one of which is our new protein-packed French Toast, making it a breeze to whip up any day of the week!

Made with oats and ancient grains, our frozen French Toast is packed with 40g of whole grains per serving, plus 13g of protein! Starting your day on a nutritious note has never been easier! You can satisfy your craving for something sweet (we think this recipe tastes almost like dessert for breakfast YUM!) while still getting in the nutrients you need to power through your morning!

The combination of protein and whole grains is one that will keep you satiated straight until lunch.

How to mix it up!

We listed honey as an optional ingredient. If you like your French Toast a little sweeter, we recommend adding 1 tbsp. However, please keep in mind that the French Toast is already slightly sweetened. Plus, the berries add a bit more sweetness to the recipe. You can use either our Oats & Honey or Cinnamon French Toast for this recipe. Either will yield a delicious result!

When it comes to the toppings, don’t let the end be mixed berries! You could use chocolate chips, sliced bananas, sliced almonds, raisins, cranberries, a drizzle of nut butter once it’s done baking, etc. There is no limit to the possibilities after you start with a base of French Toast!

Mixed Berry Baked French Toast Casserole Ingredients:

  • 1 box Oats & Honey or Cinnamon French Toast
