Overnight Vegan French Toast Casserole

A close up of a white pan with baked vegan french toast.

This simple recipe for vegan french toast is prepped the night before and baked to golden perfection the next morning.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 loaf Sourdough Bread
  • 1½ cups Oat Milk
  • ¼ cup Ground Flax
  • ⅔ cup Sugar
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • 2 teaspoons Cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla

Instructions

  1. Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with plant-based butter.
  2. In a large liquid measuring cup mix together 1 ½ cups oat milk and ¼ cup ground flax. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes before adding remaining ingredients.
  3. While the flax activates with the oat milk, slice the bread into 1/4-1/2 inch thick pieces.
  4. After the flax has activated, stir in ⅔ cup sugar, ½ teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons cinnamon, and 2 teaspoons vanilla. Mix until well combined.
  5. Pour the liquid mixture into the prepared baking dish.
  6. Next dip a few of the slices of bread into the liquid mixture on both sides and set them to the side on a plate. I would suggest between 4 and 6 slices.
  7. With the remaining pieces of bread, dip on both sides in the oat milk mixture and stack them in the baking dish (I like to stagger the stacking as best I can).
  8. Place the pre-dipped slices after all of the other slices have been dipped and stacked.
  9. Cover and let rest in the refrigerator overnight.
  10. In the morning (or when you plan to bake) preheat the oven to 350°F.
  11. Remove the casserole from the refrigerator and take the plastic wrap off the top.
  12. Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.
