Baked French Toast

Kim

Ingredients
  

  • 1 16 oz loaf of French bread
  • 8 large eggs
  • 2 cups half & half
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon mace (optional)

Praline Topping

  • 3/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons Karo syrup
  • 1 1/2 cup nuts

Instructions
 

  • Cut bread into 1 inch slices. In a heavy buttered 13 x 9 inch baking dish, arrange the bread slices in two rows, overlapping the slices, if necessary.
    Crack eggs into a blender, or mixer. Add the remaining ingredients and blend, or mix, until ingredients are well incorporated. Pour mixture over bread slices. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
    Bake at 350 degrees for 45-50 minutes for a bread pudding-like texture, or for 1 hour (or more) for a firmer more dense texture. Shield the top with foil if topping starts to brown to quickly.
