Notes

Can I make this dairy-free?

Absolutely! Pick your favorite dairy-free milk option and substitute the butter with either a dairy-free option or use a cooking spray on the pan.

How do you store leftovers?

Refrigerate within two hours of cooking, placing the leftover French toast in an airtight container. It will last 4-5 days in the fridge. To reheat, you can use the microwave, but I like to use the air fryer. It keeps the bread from getting soggy and reheats the French toast perfectly.

Can you freeze French toast?

Yup. I do this sometimes for an easy to go breakfast for those mornings that are chaotic. Same as leftovers, allow the French toast to cool to room temperature. Then, in a single layer (with paper towels in between), put the French toast slices in a freezer bag. Use within a month or two for the best quality.
