This Overnight Pumpkin Spice French Toast Bake is the perfect Fall breakfast. It is easy to assemble and can be made ahead of time to feed a crowd during the holidays!

It feels weird celebrating holidays this year. Many cities are shut down and traveling is restricted. Family gatherings are forced to limit down to immediate family members who lives in the same household, which means less food for a smaller group of people. There is so much happening in this crazy world we live in, and more than enough issues to worry about. When it comes to food, sometimes we just need something delicious but without the hassle, don’t you agree?

I’m sharing my recipe for overnight pumpkin spice French toast casserole to help you save time during the holidays. Overnight French toast bake is one of my favorite things to make when I’m feeling lazy but want something fresh and delicious the next morning. Make this ahead of time of time and enjoy it for delicious breakfast or brunch with your loved ones.

WHAT YOU NEED:

• Bread: I used a loaf of brioche bread. Challah and French bread work too!
• Milk: Whole milk is best, but you can substitute with non-dairy milk
• Heavy Cream
• Eggs
• Pumpkin Puree: I used canned pumpkin puree. Feel free to use homemade puree!
• Sugar: White sugar for the batter, and brown sugar for streusel topping
• Spices: I used store bought pumpkin pie spice. You can make your own by mixing cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, ground cloves, and all spice together.
• Vanilla Extract: Optional
