Anyhow...this is really easy and simple. Nothing you probably didn't already do when you make French Toast. But I love that I discovered it freezes and reheats well! This worked out perfectly for camping for us. I made them ahead of time, froze them in freezer bags and just threw them into the camper fridge. They were defrosted when we wanted to cook them and all I did was add them single layer in a pan and baked them til hot. This would also be great for a quick breakfast at home.
Here are the recipe details (although I did end up mixing up more egg mixture to cook more slices):
Freezer French Toast
Makes 12-16 slices.6 eggs
1 1/4 cups milk
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 tsp salt
Dash cinnamon and vanilla
12-16 slices white bread
Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat and spray with cooking spray. (I use a large skillet that covers two burners and I can fit 8 slices at a time.)
Have a cute little helper drop slices of bread into the egg mixture, then turn and coat the other side.
Cook in batches, flipping after a couple of minutes (when it starts to brown). Flip and cook for 2 more minutes. Cool then freeze in single layer. Once frozen (about two hours) they can be packaged individually or placed in a single freezer bag.
To reheat:
Remove from freezer, and heat in toaster (haven't tried this yet!) or oven, then serve with butter and syrup. yum!
I store them like this in the freezer:
Oh boy! I gotta do this!!!
