French Toast Casserole Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Slice french loaf into 20 slices (about an inch thick). My loaf came out to be exactly 20 slices (minus the hard ends). Lay the slices into a generously buttered casserole dish in two rows, with each slice overlapping the other.
  • In large bowl, combine the egges, half-and-half, milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, salt and beat or whisk until well blended (but not frothy). Pour mixture over bread slices, covering evenly over each slice. Make sure you get between the slices. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • The next day, preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Spread Praline Topping evenly over bread and bake for 40-50 minutes, until puffed and lightly golden. Serve with maple syrup.
  • Praline topping:
  • Combine all ingredients in medium bowl and blend well. It makes a lot and you'll think you're overdoing it when you spread it over the bread, but trust me, you want to use it ALL.

    " It was excellent "

    I have this recipe on my page too, adapted from the Paula Deen version. I see you don't care for the nutmeg either. I've made this so many times for cabin guests and friends and family. It really is delicious. I have started using just about a cup less of milk, and only half and half and 5 eggs seem to be plenty. This way it is a little less custard-like and more French toast-like. I love it both ways but find that perhaps smaller children and some men prefer it a little firmer. No matter how you make it, it is very tasty.

    Nothing that originated as something from Paula Dean can be bad!! And anything with that much butter has to be good! I'm not a fan of Karo, maybe molasses or honey will work just as well?
