Not sure what went wrong, but my French toast turned out soggy and undercooked. Maybe I didn't bake it for long enough.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover bread. Loved the crispy cornflake topping and the fluffy French toast inside.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The cornflake crust was a bit bland and the French toast lacked flavor.

I found the casserole to be a bit dry. Maybe I should have added more milk or syrup to the mixture.

Not a fan of the cornflake crust. It was a bit too crunchy for my taste and overpowered the flavor of the French toast.

I used panko breadcrumbs instead of cornflakes and it still turned out crispy and delicious. Definitely going to experiment with different toppings next time.

Loved the convenience of making this French toast in the oven. It was so hands-off and easy to adjust the cooking time to my liking.

Followed the recipe exactly and it came out great! The cornflakes added a lovely crunch and the maple syrup glaze was the perfect finishing touch.

This cornflake-coated baked French toast casserole is hands-down the easiest and tastiest breakfast dish I've had in a while! The perfect combination of crispy and soft, and a real crowd-pleaser.
