Triple Berry French Toast Casserole

There’s so much to love about a French Toast Casserole it’s really hard to know where to begin. I happen to love berries so when I started developing this recipe I knew that I wanted a LOT of berry flavor. This casserole might be a little different than ones that you have seen before and is certainly different than the other French toast casseroles that I have shared here at Mom On Timeout.

What Makes This Recipe Amazing

This recipe is special in many ways. One, you don’t have to make the casserole ahead of time and store in the refrigerator overnight. You can if you want, but you don’t have to.

Two, this recipe uses frozen berries meaning it’s easy to make all year round. Great for Christmas, Easter, Mother’s Day, or any weekend you want to make the family feel special. If berries are in season, like they are now, I simply cannot resist topping this casserole with fresh berries and, of course, powdered sugar.

Three, although maple syrup is delicious with this casserole, you really don’t need it. The frozen berries combined with sugar and corn starch create their own syrup right in the baking dish. It’s incredible! Just spoon over the top of the casserole if you like. That very same syrup gets lovingly soaked into the bottom of the bread while it bakes making the most delightful bite each and every time.

Four, this casserole is dairy free! I used Almond Breeze Vanilla Almondmilk which lends a lovely vanilla flavor that complements the vanilla extract that is used in the dish. You can of course use refrigerated or shelf-stable Almond Breeze (the coconut blend would be ah-mazing!) but I always have a carton of the refrigerated vanilla on hand. It’s great in smoothies!

If you don’t keep almondmilk on hand, feel free to use whatever milk you normally use in this recipe. Anything will work!
