Baked French Toast

We love breakfast.  We really love having this for breakfast.  Sometimes we have it for supper (Thursday night is breakfast night.)  It is such a treat.


Baked French Toast.  So yummy, it melts it your mouth. 
Start with the caramel.  Melt brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon in a saucepan, then pour it into a 13x9 pan.  No need to spray the pan...the butter takes care of that.  You can add chopped pecans...we prefer it pure & simple.

 Cut 1-inch thick slices of French bread.  I cut it on the angle so there is more surface area for all the caramel goodness. 

 

 

Beat a few eggs with milk, dunk the bread into the egg on both sides, then place on top of the caramel in the pan.

 

 

Bake it until the top is dry and golden. 

 

 

 Flip the French toast when you serve it so the caramel is on top.  You can dust it with powdered sugar if you wish...we prefer it pure & simple.  A few strawberries or raspberries on the side would be supreme!

Baked French Toast

 

In a saucepan, melt:

 

1/3 c brown sugar

1/4 c butter

1/2 tsp cinnamon

 

(Double the brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon if you like lots of caramel). 

Pour caramel sauce into a 13x9 pan.  May top with chopped pecans or coconut.

Beat together:

 

3-4 eggs

1/3 c milk

 

Slice a French bread loaf into 1-inch slices.

 

Dip both sides of each bread slice into the egg mixture.  Place on top of the caramel sauce in the pan.  Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until the top is dry and golden.  Remove one slice of French toast at a time, inverting onto a serving plate or individual plates.  Dust with powdered sugar if desired.
