The prefect dish to impress your breakfast crowd, this Overnight Blueberry Baked French Toast is easy to make, tastes delicious and will easily become your family’s favorite.

Nothing wakes up my family faster than the smell of this delicious Overnight Blueberry Baked French Toast Casserole baking in the oven. It’s my go-to breakfast for special occasions like Christmas mornings or when we have house guests. This casserole is easy to put together, and it’s made the night before so there’s no fuss the following day. I even keep a few of these in the freezer for when I need a make-ahead meal.  

French Toast is one of my favorite breakfasts for a slow Sunday morning. But let’s face it, with two young kids, it’s hard to have a slow morning of any kind. So, this casserole is the perfect solution for my quiet morning daydreams. Not only does it taste exactly, if not better, than slow-Sunday French Toast, it’s prepped the night before so there’s nothing to do but pop it in the oven in the morning. 

Overnight Blueberry Bake French Toast Casserole

I prefer to use French bread that is a little crusty and a few days old. This is the best type of bread to soak up all the scrumptiousness and to prevent the casserole from becoming too soggy. Making this casserole overnight also helps the bread sop up the delicious sauce too. I promise it’s worth planning ahead to make this!

This Overnight Blueberry Baked French Toast Casserole can be frozen. When I plan on freezing the casserole, I prefer to use a disposable aluminum foil pan so clean up is even more of a breeze (can this tasty meal get any easier?!). Bake this dish as directed and allow it to cool completely. Wrap in plastic wrap and then aluminum foil and freeze for up to three months. Allow the casserole to defrost in your refrigerator for about 24 hours before reheating. Uncover and bake at 350°F for about 30 minutes. 

I hope you enjoy this dish as much as our family does. If you’re looking for more mouthwatering blueberry dishes, click here.

    I've made this recipe several times for Christmas morning or when I have guests or family over. It's easy to make the night before and always tastes amazing.

Hi! I'm Shannon and I live on a farm in Northern California where we enjoy a hard day’s work, home cooked meals and preserving the past. Oh yeah, we’re building a new (old) Farmhouse too! I created this blog as a way to journal our Farmhouse build and collect our family-favorite recipes.
