Crockpot French Toast

Fridays at work are our meeting days where we get together and talk about our work week, all while we eat breakfast food and coffee. This week was my week and I made this Crockpot French toast! I wanted something simple and quick because I didn’t have much time the day before to make something extravagant. I don’t like to buy something store bought when I have the chance to make something. I soaked the bread mix at home and brought my Crockpot to work so that we could all have a freshly made breakfast to enjoy. I hope you all enjoy this recipe too! I doubled this recipe since my coworkers tend to eat a lot ( and I mean A LOT I am no exception to this statement) during our Friday meetings. [:
