    Frequently Asked Questions:

    Can I make this Raspberry Vegan Crescent French Toast Casserole Top 8 Allergen Free?

    This recipe has wheat, soy, and potentially coconut inside.

    For the vegan butter, just use a soy free option, like Earth Balance soy free.

    For the cream cheese, many have coconut. You could make our nut free soy free vegan cream cheese and swap the coconut oil for vegan butter.

    For the milk, just use a plant based milk that is safe for your allergens.

    While we haven’t tried swapping the tofu, you could try to do a flax egg mixture. You would need 6 tablespoon of ground flax seed and ¾ cup water Stir together and let site for 10 minutes. Use this to swap the tofu, cornstarch and water mixture.

    Lastly, is the crescent rolls. you could try to find a gluten free vegan crescent roll but we have not found one yet.

    Can I prep this Raspberry Vegan Crescent French Toast Casserole ahead?

    This recipe can be made and stored in an air tight container for 5-7 days. 

    Just make the recipe as written, cover and place in fridge until ready to use.  Place back in the oven for 10-15 to warm back up or in the microwave for 30-45 seconds at a time until heated through.

      I made this for brunch we were hosting for some friends. It was incredible. The most difficult part was not eating the crescent rolls while waiting for them to become a day old.
      I also can’t say enough good things about the ‘authors’. If you have a question, send them a message on Instagram, they usually reply with in a day. They are so supportive of anyone trying their recipes.. this has quickly and easily become my number one go to site.
