CONFESSION: I’ve been listening to Christmas music since October. I know, I know. Shame. But I just can’t help myself, y’all! This is truly my favorite time of year!

In my defense, the Christmas tree didn’t go up until the day after Thanksgiving, as is perfectly acceptable by most of society. So you can be proud of me for that! I’ve tempted to put it up for weeks now. And I must say, it’s looking pretty warm, cozy, and fabulous in our new home. I’ll be posting about it later this month!

    That sounds so good! I love gingerbread flavored things, but hadn’t tried it in French Toast – and this casserole sounds great! I like that topping…

    I love french toast bakes for busy holidays, especially when you have alot of company. I like the way you’ve chosen to assemble this one with the french toast and the topping loaded with the flavors of gingerbread. Looks delicious. I think this would be great for Christmas morning.

    Love gingerbread, french toast, and this bake! I haven’t had anything like this in a couple years and I’m craving it and a nice cozy relaxing morning. We will be going to cut our tree this weekend and if it’s in the morning instead of evening I will be making this.

    Hehe. That was funny about listening to Christmas music in October. Here’s my guilty secret. We have a shuffle on our apple tv and if my hubby isn’t home, I will not advance off a Christmas song! (So basically I listen year round) But enough about that. Your gingerbread french toast looks divine and something that would be great for Christmas morning!! Great recipe and I look forward to making it!
