A fluffy, creamy french toast is smothered the night before in a sweet batter and the next morning is topped with a crumble topping and baked to perfection.
So, yesterday I’m sure you all heard about the “potentially historic blizzard” we got here on the East Coast… *crickets* … But it turned out to only be a few inches of snow and everyone was pretty upset about it since they sent everyone in basically a full blown panic. (This video had me DYING. Hahahaha) But me, not so much. As long as we had a fun snow day where Mike got to stay home and there was enough snow to play outside, I didn’t care how much snow we got! John absolutely loves the snow so it’s so much fun! If you follow me on Instagram you already have seen my snowy pictures. Here’s some photos of my snow bunnies : 
and back to this deliciousness.. 
The night before, I knew I wanted to make a delicious breakfast to wake up to on the chilly, snowy morning so I thought Overnight French Toast would be awesome. And mannnn, was I right! The center is slightly gooey and you can control the gooeyness by how long you bake it. I don’t like mine too gooey so I baked it for almost the full amount of time.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
Grease a 9x13 pan very lightly with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
Cut bread slices into 1 inch chunks and stagger them in the prepared baking dish as even as possible. You may need more or less bread depending on thickness/size etc. so just be sure to fill up the pan 3/4 to the top. In a large measuring cup or bowl, whisk eggs, milk, heavy cream, sugar and vanilla together until combined. Pour mixture evenly over bread pieces trying to moisten every piece as well as you can. Cover and store in the refrigerator over night.
Next, prepare the crumble. In a medium sized bowl, whisk together flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt. Cut in butter with a fork or your hands (my preferred method) until a coarse meal consistency is achieved. If the mixture is too "wet" and buttery, add a little bit more flour one tablespoon at a time. until the mixture is crumbly. Either cover the bowl with saran wrap or dump the mixture into a zip lock bag and store in the refrigerator over night with the pan of french toast. (I like the bag method because in the morning I can break up the crumble pieces with my fingers through the bag without having to squish it in my hands.)
In the morning, preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Uncover the french toast and evenly distribute the crumble on top. Bake for 40 minutes - 1 hour depending on how gooey you want the center to be. Once you hit the 40 minute mark, I would start checking the center every 5 minutes until its to your liking. (I bake mine for about 50 minutes because I don't like mine too gooey, but I don't like it dry either.) Once done, serve warm with maple syrup or even just a sprinkle of confectioner's sugar on top.
This Overnight French Toast will keep for up to 2 days stored either at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Oh my goodness, this looks delicious! I just added some heavy cream into my Peapod order so I can make this Friday night I’m not sure where you are in the NE, but it was hilarious watching that lady on Fox news(NY) the day of the storm flipping out over the lack of snow Again, thank you so much for sharing this recipe, I cannot wait to surprise the family with it this weekend!
This looks absolutely amazing!! I love easy recipes like this and French toast is a favorite in our house to have. Looks like a great snow day to, not too much and just enough to enjoy!
Oh My Gosh! I am making this ASAP!!!!!! It looks amazing and my stomach totally just growled! I wish I could just press a button and it appear in front of me! And I am very well aware of this storm! It was a joke! We got pretty much nothing where I live. Thank you so much for sharing!
This looks and sounds so delicious. I’ve got to make this Friday night for overnight company. I can serve it Saturday am and I’m sure from the sound of it that I’ll have some pats on the back for making it :). I’ll credit it to you of course.
I have always wanted to touch snow and feel how it’s cold on a snowy day outside. Just by looking at your photos, I can sense that it’s fun to play out but it is a great cozy feeling too to just stay at home to keep warm. The overnight French toast looked super yummy!
This overnight french toast looks totally delicious for a special breakfast or even for dessert. I bet it would be great made with challah bread. Unlike you, I’d probably make the recipe so that the french toast is gooey. Yum!
This definitely looks delicious! I like that you can control the gooey level- I would not want super gooey French toast and I just don’t think that sounds too appetizing. This would be great for tons of occasions, especially if you have company coming over the in the mornings! I’ll be booking this to try someday.
Ahhh, that looks like an amazing breakfast/brunch to come in to, after a session of playing in the snow. :9 Cute snow bunnies! And utterly delicious-looking french toast – I like the idea of the crumble topping to add some texture to the toast/pudding. I might try substituting the heavy cream and some of the whole milk for non or low-fat milk to cut down on calories, but other than that, it sounds perfect! And easy for add-ons… candied nuts, berries, or a condensed milk topping maybe… :9 Thanks for the recipe!

This looks absolutely delicious! My boys love French toast and my other half makes it on a regular basis, I’ve never heard of letting it set overnight though – I need to show this to my other half! I like that this version has a crumble to it, such a unique twist to how we usually make it. Thanks for sharing the recipe and method, we need to try it out for ourselves
This looks and sounds so good. I swear I can almost smell it! I’m not a very good baker, but I’m guessing even I can make this recipe. It would be an awesome surprise for my husband on some cold Sunday morning.
Oh, definitely!
OMG! Get in my belly now!! I have to try this for the kids sometime. French toast is always the go to breakfast or lazy dinner choices. But since there’s 5 of us, and these kids can go through a lot of bread. I’m gonna have to bookmark this to try later with them, they will love it, I already know it.
Yes, I think they would definitely love it!
It’s even better with challah bread or really just any thick cut bread!
That’s good to know! I love challah bread so I may try that.
I found the middle to be a bit bland, I would probably add some cinnamon to the egg mixture. Otherwise it turned out pretty good.
Your pictures look like there are peaches on top under the crumble. Did you put peaches on it?
Nope, no peaches. What you’re seeing is the crust from the bread.
Looks delicious. I like the crumbly top. ?? The photo of the overnight French toast looks like there are peach slices on the bread. Are there ?
Nope, no peaches. What you’re seeing is the crust from the bread.
I just tried this today. It was amazing. My family absolutely loved it. My brother and sister-in-law were visiting from Colorado, so I decided to make it and it was a hit. It was all gone and it was delicious.
Awesome!! I’m glad your company loved it.
I am hosting a brunch for my husband’s birthday this Sunday and this recipe looks delicious! My sister-in-law is gluten free. Has anyone tried this receipt using gluten free bread and/or flour? Any thoughts on whether using GF bread and flour would be setting myself up for disaster or, alternatively, be fine substitutes? Thank you in advance!
Some reason mines was not crumbly as much.. Can you tell me why

After I initially left a comment I seem to have clicked on the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and now every time a comment is added I get four emails with the same comment. Perhaps there is an easy method you can remove me from that service? Thanks a lot!
I was just looking for this info for a while. After 6 hours of continuous Googleing, finally I got it in your web site. I wonder what’s the lack of Google strategy that do not rank this type of informative websites in top of the list. Generally the top web sites are full of garbage.
