Yielding pancakes for a crowd will have you at the stove for a while. So, sometimes I make and freeze pancakes in advance, then thaw them and pull this breakfast casserole together the day-of. If the name of this recipe has your mind bending, these are pancakes, made like a baked french toast. Did that make sense? If not, you’ll see below! I love the pretty blueberries on top! Have fun with this one.
