Easter is a week away and in my mind that also marks the start of brunch season! What better way to celebrate that, than with a French Toast Bar!!
I've said it before and I'll say it again, bars are my favorite way to entertain. From the Bruschetta Bar to the S'mores Bar and now this French Toast Bar, they are the best! Big boards full of food that your guests can mix or match to create their own perfect meal. I'm obsessed and don't see that changing anytime soon!
Whip up a batch of my Vanilla Bean French Toast inspired by my culinary school days, and then top it with anything your heart desires!! Bacon, apples, whipped cream, butter, nutella, berries - the possibilities are ENDLESS!

What a fun way to feed a crowd! It's so perfect for spring!!
What a seriously awesome idea! I too love 'bars' for entertaining, it's so cool to see what everyone comes up with. Happy spring and Easter 🙂
Mmmm french toast bar. I love the idea of vanilla bean french toast. Definitely need to try that recipe. This is great for any sort of brunch!
What a great idea! So many choices! This would be great for Mother's Day as well!! Can't wait to see what you come up with next!
I'm with you bars or food are the best! ( well and drink for that matter LOL) especially with teenagers...they love choices! I think I'm going to use this one for my next teen luncheon.
Now that is a crazy cool idea! I'll have to keep this in mind if we ever host brunch again. Me, I'd probably put nutella and strawberries on mine 🙂
