Whenever I have a leftover loaf of hearty French or Italian bread lying around, I always love to cut it up and do something creative with it. Sometimes I’ll make bread crumbs or croutons, or maybe garlic bread or panzanella, but on weekends there’s nothing better than French toast.
Thing is, I tend to think big, bready slices of traditional French toast are just too heavy for breakfast. That’s why I love this idea of cutting up bite-sized cubes of day-old bread, soaking them in egg, milk, cinnamon and vanilla, and bubbling ’em in a pan with a little butter. The smell is incredible and the taste is light, fluffy, moist and full of all the French toast goodness you know and love.
Whether you top these little bites with fresh fruit, whipped cream or maple syrup, I know you’ll just love them, and kids will too. Plus, they’re just as simple and quick to make as traditional French toast, even if you’re not a morning person!

French Toast Bites
Yield: Makes 4 servings
These little French Toast bites are so cute, the kids would love them for breakfast…great idea, thanks for sharing!
I totally agree…there is nothing better to do with leftover french bread than make french toast…especially when it is bite sized!
I want to try this! I often find French toast heavy also. And these are so cute.
Yuuummy. Why didn’t I see this yesterday? I would’ve made these today. Oh well. These look yummy. I want some now.
Perfect idea! I ‘ve been doing that only with eggs, but some milk and cinammon is GREAT!
These look delicious, and I’m normally not a huge fan of French toast. They are perfect because you can decide exactly how much (or how little) you want!
Every now and then, something like this idea suddenly seems like a GREAT idea! Thanks for posting!

A good looking breakfast
I love a good breakfast/lunch/dinner of french toast and this is a cute idea. I can trick myself into thinking that I’m eating less :)
These are way cute! They remind me of something you’d get in a restaurant.
What a great idea for using leftover bread. This looks like a wonderful breakfast!
This is a perfect breakfast! The toast in diced shaped is very different and appealing.
Wow Georgia – luv the idea of making little bite-sized French toasts. Your serving presentation is beautiful with the whipped cream and raspberries!
These look great! I LOVE French Toast!
That looks yummy!
What a fun idea. I haven’t made French toast in so long. These bites look perfect for a cozy breakfast!
Wonderful photo … they look so appetising.
Your french toast bites look so good. Funny how different shapes can make a recipe so unique and different. xo
Wish I was at your house on a Saturday morning! I’m curious about trying these in a savory way…on a salad, instead of regular croutons.
This looks like such a delicious, decadent breakfast! What a perfect way to use up old bread!
I may have to go out and buy a loaf of french bread just so I can have leftovers to make these cute little french toast bites! These are lovely, Georgia! (and small enough so the center can’t get soggy!)
You are always able to take classic, simple recipes and turn them into something new and different. This is why I return to your blog again and again. You are inspiration, my dear! I love the thought of these crusty, sweet bites, and I’m sure that everyone who shared these with you were thrilled!
What a fantastic idea! Great photos as usual.
Oh man, my daughter would flip over this…I am wishing I could have some right now I love all of your pics, great eye you have.
