Notes

Be sure to spray the baking dish with nonstick spray before you start.
When layering in the bread, you want as little space as possible between pieces.
Cover the dish with a tightly fitting lid, plastic wrap, or aluminum foil before refrigerating it.
Let the casserole come to room temperature while you preheat the oven. It’s best if it’s not super cold when it goes in.
Bake french toast uncovered. If it starts to get too brown, you can cover it for the last few minutes.
You can use peaches in water or syrup. Just make sure they are drained fully. Fresh peaches won’t work in this recipe because they require more time to bake and soften.
You can use homemade or store-bought whipped cream.

Storage: Store overnight french toast in an airtight storage container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, gently warm in a 350°F oven until hot.
