Tips:

  • Use fresh berries. Fresh berries will give your French toast bake the best flavor. If you can't find fresh berries, you can use frozen berries, but be sure to thaw them before using.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your French toast bake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the French toast bake in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish. This will help to prevent the French toast bake from sticking to the pan.
  • Serve the French toast bake with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include maple syrup, whipped cream, and fresh fruit.
