Make-Ahead & Storage Tips

• Overnight French toast casserole: assemble the night before, cover, and refrigerate. Bake fresh in the morning.
• Storage: refrigerate up to 4 days. Reheat with a splash of milk for a soft texture.
• Freezer-friendly: freeze individual portions and microwave straight from frozen.

 Variations

• Vegan apple french toast casserole: layer sliced apples before baking.
• Cinnamon roll version: swirl in brown-erythritol butter and top with cream-cheese glaze.
• No tofu / no egg options: already fully egg-free thanks to flaxseed custard.
