Freezer French Toast Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, beat eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla and nutmeg. Place bread in a well-greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Pour egg mixture over bread. Let soak for several minutes, turning once to coat. Freeze until firm. Package in airtight containers. , To bake, place bread on a well-greased baking sheet. Dot with butter. Bake at 450° for 7 minutes; turn and bake 10-12 minutes longer or until golden brown.

Steps:

• Crack the eggs into a pie plate. Add the half-and-half, vanilla, 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of the cinnamon. Whisk lightly until combined; set aside.
• In a separate pie plate, stir together the panko breadcrumbs, crushed cereal and remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. Use a fork to stir in the melted butter so that the crumbs are slightly moist. Crack up at the madness that is in this dish, then set it aside.
• One by one, quickly dunk the bread strips in the egg mixture, turning to coat. Then lay them in the dish with the crumb mixture, turning them over, sprinkling and pressing so the crumbs totally cover the surface. Place the sticks on a rack set in a baking sheet. Flash-freeze for 30 minutes to set the surface.
• Transfer the sticks to zipper bags for storage in the freezer. I do smaller bags of 6 to 8 sticks each, but you can do larger batches if you prefer!
• To bake them from frozen state, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a pan with frozen sticks and bake until golden brown around the edges, 15 to 18 minutes. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve with warm pancake syrup for dipping and fruit to make you feel good about life!

Steps:

• Beat all but the bread in a large bowl.
• Dip each slice of bread in mixture so it absorbs as much as possible.
• Brown on both sides in margarine over moderate heat.
• Cool.
• Freeze in single layer on greased cookie sheet overnite.
• Stack and wrap in foil and return to freezer until ready to use.
• To heat place slice in toaster until hot.

Steps:

• Spray-treat a baking dish.
• Arrange half of the bread cubes in the dish and top with cream cheese cubes. (this gets messy -- just try to spread the lumps of cream cheese evenly around.).
• Sprinkle blueberries over the cream cheese and top with the remaining bread cubes.
• Whisk together the eggs, egg substitute, milk, vanilla, spices and maple syrup. Pour over the bread cubes.
• Sprinkle wheat germ evenly over casserole.
• Cover and refrigerate overnight if serving the next day. If not, continue with freezing instructions.
• Freezing Directions: Cover the pan loosely with plastic wrap and then cover tightly with aluminum foil. Freeze. Freeze cooled sauce separately in quart freezer bags.
• To make the sauce (this can be made ahead and frozen or made just before serving): in a medium saucepan mix the sugar, cornstarch and water. (Do this before starting to heat the water -- make sure the cornstarch is completely dissolved before you start heating this!)
• Bring to a boil and cook, stirring constantly for 3-4 minutes.
• Mix in the blueberries. Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes. Cool before putting in freezer bags.
• To cook, thaw overnight in refrigerator. Remove plastic wrap from casserole. Bake covered for 30 minutes at 350 degrees. Uncover and continue baking 25-30 minutes until center is firm and surface is lightly browned. Warm sauce in microwave, stirring often. Serve casserole with warmed sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F (180˚C).
• Spray a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Stack and slice the Texas toast into thirds.
• In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, butter, vanilla, cinnamon, salt, and sugar.
• Dunk each strip of bread into the mixture, allow the excess to drip off, then place on prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining strips.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway.
• Remove from oven and serve.
• NOTE: To freeze, let the sticks cool slightly and transfer baking sheet to freezer. Once frozen, after 1-2 hours, transfer to a freezer bag for easy storage.
• To reheat, preheat oven to 350°F (180˚C) and bake for 10-15 minutes until heated through. OR transfer frozen sticks to a plate and microwave 45-60 seconds.
• Enjoy!
