This Strawberry French Toast Bake is definitely going to be a breakfast staple throughout this spring and summer while strawberries are in season. Nothing screams summer like a batch of fresh strawberries, am I right? If you feel like “turning up” in the kitchen this weekend, go ahead and turn it all the way up with this recipe.

Few things make me happier than sitting down to a warm breakfast. Admittedly, it’s not something I elect to do every morning, but when Saturday and Sunday roll around, I like to break out the frying pans and casserole dishes and crank up the music while I “turn up” in the kitchen. Making a french toast dish with fresh strawberries had been on my mind for days, and I was ready to get this party started.
