Overnight Baked French Toast

"My hubby came up with this yummy recipe.  It's the perfect way to prepare French toast for overnight guests or large gatherings, because you can prepare it the night before and bake several servings at once in the morning.  Make it for your next breakfast or brunch and Good Morning to you!"



"Yummy French toast served with butter & maple syrup and garnished with fresh raspberries from the garden!"

8 slices of Texas Toast

1 cup of Half and Half

4 egg yolks, beaten

1 Tablespoon sugar

1/8 teaspoon nutmeg 

butter, for serving

syrup of your choice

fresh raspberries, to garnish, if desired

 

In an 8x8 baking dish, whisk together Half and Half, egg yolks, sugar and nutmeg until completely combined.  Dip each slice of Texas toast in the egg mixture, making sure to soak both sides completely.  Allow excess egg mixture to drain off of toast and place on a large (11x15) parchment paper covered sheet pan.  You could also cover the sheet pan with a Sil-pat silicone mat.  Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate over night.

 

The next morning when ready to prepare the French toast, preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Uncover toast and place in oven.  Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes.  Flip toast over and continue to bake for an additional 10 minutes.  Serve French Toast with butter, maple syrup, or your favorite syrup.  Garnish with fresh raspberries, if desired.  ENJOY!
