I am so excited to share this easy holiday recipe, Cinnamon Bun French Toast, with you today. In the event that you’re looking for a simple, make-ahead, no fuss, and completely indulgent brunch recipe for Christmas morning (or any weekend morning, it doesn’t have to be a holiday), I took care of it for you. I made something similar and shared it on the blog last December (this Crock Pot Cinnamon Bun Casserole).

That recipe was SO popular and went absolutely crazy for the entire holiday season. I had no choice but to make a similar, and possibly even better, version of that deliciousness. This Crock Pot Cinnamon Bun French Toast would not only be perfect for the holidays, but a great recipe for breakfast any time of the year when you don’t want to turn on your oven!

I added chopped pecans to this Crock Pot Cinnamon Bun French Toast to switch things up a little. I also changed up the spices and used vanilla Greek yogurt. It was perfect! I love using my crock pot for quick and easy holiday recipes.
