Ingredients:

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 1/3 cups half-and-half
  • 4 tsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1 1/4 cups sliced almonds (5 oz.)
  • 8 slices thick challah
  • 3 tbsp butter

Directions:

  1. Put oven rack in middle position and preheat to 275ºF.
  2. Whisk together eggs, half and half, sugar, vanilla and salt in a large shallow dish until well combined.
  3. Spread almonds on a large plate.
  4. Soak 4 slices of bread in the egg mixture, turning over once, until saturated.
  5. Working with 1 slice at a time, remove the bread, letting the excess egg mixture drip off, then dredge in almonds to coat both sides, gently pressing to help adhere.
  6. Transfer to a plate or wax paper. Repeat procedure with remaining 4 slices.
  7. Heat 1 1/2 Tbs butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium heat until foam subsides, then cook 4 bread slices, turning over once, until almonds and bread are golden brown, 5-6 minute.
  8. Add the remaining 1 1/2 Tbs butter and cook the remaining 4 slices in the same manner. Transfer the cooked French toast to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven while cooking the last 4 pieces.
