I used raisin bread, granola with almonds and walnuts, so I didn't add dried cranberries or additional walnuts. I made it the night before, and in the morning baked it at 350°F for 20 minutes. DH and I agreed it was tasty, but would have been better without the granola topping. The raisin bread was a batch that hadn't risen well, so it was a little dense on its own; however, once the sauce soaked in, it was perfectly tasty and fluffy as french toast! Next time, I'll probably stop before the cereal step (so just eggs, milk, vanilla, and raisin bread) but this is a really great make-ahead single-serving-ramekin french toast! It's even got the option to bake for crispy or microwave for speed!

Talk about fast and easy! Similar to a bread pudding in taste, but not as sweet, and seriously delicious. Unable to eat wheat, I used a commercial gluten-free bread and gluten-free puffed rice for the cereal, plus I subbed sultanas for the cranberries (all I had on hand). Gluten-free bread doesn't absorb as much liquid as real bread, so it took a little longer to cook the liquid out than the recipe recommended. I may try using a bit less milk next time. Following the advice of another reviewer, I made one in the microwave, and one in the oven (350deg for about 25 minutes). The oven one developed a nice crusty top which was lovely. Thanks Diana #2!
