    All you need for a full french toast breakfast is 5 ingredients, 15 minutes, and a sheet pan. This Sheet Pan French Toast Breakfast is an easy breakfast meal that is perfect for one or two people and takes hardly any effort. The perfect kind of breakfast!

    Recipe: $1.59 | Per Serving: $0.80 | Servings: 2

    Two French toast slices, crispy bacon, sunny-side-up eggs on plate.

    Sheet pan breakfasts (or more like brunches) have totally become a thing around here. I already enjoy our baked Rainbow Grilled Cheese during the afternoons, but breakfast has gotten pretty inventive.

    So when we want a full breakfast with minimal cleanup, this recipe is our go-to. From the fluffy French toast to the sunny side up eggs and crispy bacon, this recipe truly has it all.

    🍯 Why This Recipe Works

    1. A full meal, fast! French toast, bacon, and eggs all on the same sheet pan, cooking to the perfect temperatures and in minutes flat. It doesn't really get easier than that.
    2. One pan, one mess. This baked french toast for two with sides is an awesome way to make a filling meal without much hassle. My favorite part is the easy clean-up!
    3. It's delicious. Crispy bacon, perfectly cooked eggs, and crispy soft french toast. Everything is so good you may want to use a second pan for additional servings.

    🥘 Ingredients

    Ingredient Notes:

    Eggs- You will need eggs for the french toast mixture as well as for the sunny side up eggs.

    Sandwich Bread- Use your favorite sandwich bread or sliced bread for this french toast recipe. Note that thicker bread may require a longer cooking time.

    Bacon- Use thick or thin cut bacon depending on what you have on hand or prefer, but if it's thin cut, you'll want to keep a closer eye on it so that it doesn't burn.

    For specific ingredients and measurements, please see the recipe card below.

    📖 Variations

    Adding Hashbrowns- Incorporate Homemade Frozen Hashbrowns onto the baking sheet, ensuring they don't take up too much space. Place them alongside the bacon, adding butter before baking. Create "holes" in the cooked hashbrowns to hold the eggs. For crispiness, bake them before adding bacon.

    Adding Breakfast Sausage- Substitute bacon with breakfast sausage patties or links, or use a combination. Add the sausage links to the sheet pan with the bacon and follow the recipe steps.

    🧾 Substitutions

    Making french toast sticks

    To prepare French toast sticks resembling our Air Fryer Frozen French Toast Sticks, adjust when using a limited bread supply or preferring heartier slices like brioche.

    1. Slice the Bread: Cut the bread into 2-inch long strips, ensuring they fit well on the baking sheet.
    2. Dip in Egg Mixture: Coat each strip thoroughly in the egg mixture, ensuring even coverage.
    3. Baking Process: Place the coated strips on the baking sheet and proceed with cooking as instructed, remembering to flip them over when adding the eggs.

    🔪 Instructions for Sheet Pan French Toast Breakfast

    Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.

    Step 2: Lay 4 strips of bacon along the side on a greased large baking sheet.

    Step 3: Place the baking sheet in the oven for 5 minutes.

    Step 4: While the bacon is cooking, prepare your french toast mixture.

    Step 5: Whisk together the eggs, cinnamon, and vanilla in a pie plate or shallow bowl until well blended.

    Step 6: Remove bacon from oven.

    Step 7: Dip a slice of bread in the bowl and evenly coat both sides.

    Step 8: Lay the four pieces of french toast along the opposite side of the baking sheet.

    Step 9: Place in oven for 5 minutes.

    Step 10: Remove the pan from the oven. Flip the french toast over so that the other side can be cooked.

    Step 11: Remove the bacon if it is cooked to your liking and let it rest on a plate covered with foil or leave it on the pan if you want it more crispy.

    Step 12: Crack 4 eggs in the center of the pan. Be careful as you apply the eggs to the pan as they might slide if your pan is bent.

    Step 13: Cook for an additional 5-8 minutes depending on how well done you like your eggs. 5 minutes will give you a soft yolk (over easy), whereas 8 minutes will be a "fried hard" result.

    Step 14: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and serve warm.

    Enjoy.

    🍴 Recipe Tips

    1. Best Bread for French Toast- While regular sandwich bread works well, sliced sourdough adds a unique "buttermilk" flavor, elevating the dish. Consider trying it for a restaurant-quality experience, as seen in our Sourdough French Toast recipe.
    2. Scaling Down the Recipe- To prepare French toast for one person, simply adjust the ingredients accordingly:
      • Bread: 2 slices
      • Hashbrowns: 2 slices
      • Eggs: 4 (2 for egg mixture, 2 for sunny side up)
      • Cinnamon: ¼ teaspoon
      • Vanilla: Splash
    3. No changes are required to the cooking times or temperature.

    👩🏻‍🍳 Storage

    Refrigeration: Keep your leftovers stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat before eating.

    Freezing: Leftover French toast can also be stored in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months.

    💭 Recipe FAQs

    What goes with French toast for breakfast?

    French toast goes great with the breakfast basics like eggs, hashbrowns, bacon, and sausage but it also pairs well with fresh fruits and whipped cream too.

    Should I leave bread out overnight for French toast?

    Many chefs will say yes or they'll tell you to take a moment and dry your bread before using, but I'll be honest- I never do. I just grab a sandwich slice and whip up an egg mixture. Let the bread soak in the mixture for a few seconds and you'll still get a custard-like filling with caramelized outsides as intended.

    How to reheat french toast

    You can reheat french toast by placing it on a plate and microwaving a slice or two at a time for a minute to a minute and a half. You can also place it in the oven at 200 degrees F for about 5 minutes.
