Friday Recipe - Baked French Toast

This is easy to put together and very tasty! The original recipe said to remove the crusts from the bread, I usually don't and I think it tastes just fine with them on.

Baked French Toast

INGREDIENTS:

1 stick of butter

1 c brown sugar

1 tsp cinnamon

7 slices of bread (if you take the crusts off you may need 1 or 2 more slices)

1 c milk

4 eggs

maple syrup

Melt 1 stick of butter in a small saucepan. Add in brown sugar and cinnamon. Stir well. Pour this in the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish.

Layer 6 bread slices on top of sugar mixture. Fill in the center holes with slices from the last piece of bread.

In a small mixing bowl, beat eggs and milk together. Pour this over the bread.

Bake in 350 degree oven for 30 minutes or until golden.

Drizzle a small amount of syrup over the top.

Place this back in the oven under the broiler (my oven has a HI and a LO, I usually do LO) until brown and bubbly, about 3 minutes.

Serves 6-8
