This Crock pot French Toast Casserole tastes like you spent hours creating it, but your crock pot is really doing all the work.
You can make it the night before and set the timer for a few hours before you are ready for breakfast. The best part is you can sleep in and have a great breakfast made for your family.
All of our 5 Ingredient crockpot meals are made with 5 ingredients or less. They may also have some additional spices, but only 5 main ingredients.
Best Bread for French Toast Casserole
This recipe is made with a Loaf of French Bread. It is best when you cut it up at least an hour before it goes in the crockpot so it can get nice and crusty before you add the eggs and milk.
After I made this, I thought of all different ways you can adjust this for different flavors. So don’t be surprised if you see some more popping up over the next few months.

Love the idea of making breakfast the night before! I need to look into a slow cooker with a timer because I also enjoy sleeping more than 2-4 hours, lol.
Yes, a timer is great of if you want to get up and turn it on and go back to bed or lounge around in the morning and it will stay on warm till you want it. I had mine all warm for a few hours after it was done and still delicious.
