Oven French Toast Tips and Tricks
This French toast recipe really couldn’t be any easier, but it’s important to keep in mind a few tips and tricks to ensure that you’re whipping up the perfect batch of French toast 😀
Don’t skip the cinnamon!
We never skip the cinnamon when making French toast! It gives each slice that perfect sweet flavor without adding any sugar at all. The best way to get an even coating of cinnamon on each slice is to sprinkle it after the slices have been dipped in the egg mixture and placed on the baking sheet.
Use a sliced bread you love!
If you don’t like the bread you’re starting with, you’re not going to love the French toast! We love using whole grain bread for French toast (Dave’s Killer Bread is one of our faves!), but if you have a favorite brand of sliced bread, go for it!
Love crispier French toast?
Bake that French toast at 375ºF! The higher baking temperature will allow the edges of the slices to get nice and crispy. You’ll bake for 8 minutes and then flip each slice. Then, place back into the oven, and bake for an additional 3-5 minutes, depending on your oven.
Love chewier French toast?
Bake at 350ºF! The lower baking temperature will allow your French toast to cook more slowly, creating chewier French toasty goodness. You’ll bake for 10 minutes and then flip each slice. Then, bake for an additional 4-6 minutes, depending on your oven.

So I made this recipe today and it’s yummy. One thing I did instead of using the cooking spray was just buttering the pan. Came out very toasty on the outside yet soft and fluffy on the inside without being squishy or anything. I felt it tasted almost the same as if I would have made in a pan. Love it (:

Genius!!!
This was the easiest thing you will ever make and it was delicious! A few thoughts: I used hearty thick Farmhouse bread but might try Challah or brioche the next time. Given the thickness of bread I will add an extra egg and 1/2 – 1 teaspoon of grand mariner. We don’t use almond milk so I substituted with French vanilla creamer for flavor. Also baking spray with flour works best as does spacing out the bread. So 4 slices to each pan. Thanks for a fantastic recipe.
Tried I tried this tonight and think I either need to soak the bread more or use more spray. It was sticking. If anyone has a suggestion I’d appreciate it.
I agree with Amy; I will never use a frying pan again! Now this way I can feed everyone at once without the french toast getting cold. Thanks Lee!
