Baked French Toast

Anyone that knows me well has had my Baked French Toast. It’s comfort food on steroids and I’ve never met anyone who doesn’t come back for seconds.

2 loaves cinnamon bread

12 eggs

4-5 C milk

3/4 C Brown Sugar

Cinnamon

Vanilla

Salt

Tear loaves of cinnamon bread, challah bread, or any bread you have on hand into pieces. (Great Harvest Cinnamon Chip bread is the best.) Spray casserole dish liberally with cooking spray and add bread. In a mixing bowl stir eggs and milk (depending on how rich you want your casserole use 2%-half and half). Add cinnamon, vanilla, brown sugar and a dash of salt. Combine liquid and pour over bread making sure all bread is covered with liquid. Push down to soak all pieces. Cover and keep in refrigerator overnight.

The next day bake at 350 for 1 hour or until cooked through. (Once in awhile the middle won’t cook fully and I stick it in the microwave for 5 minutes and it finishes it off. It also helps to bring it out an hour before you’re going to cook it.) Serve with berries and maple syrup. *I used a large casserole dish so you may need to 3/4 this for a normal 9 x 13.
