This makes the most ultimate weekend brunch, I have even made it for dinner my family, I prepare it early in morning and bake in the evening, I just use the whole loaf of French bread for this - plan ahead this needs to stay in the fridge overnight... you will love this! Ingredients:
2 tablespoons corn syrup |
1/2 cup butter (no substitutions) |
1 cup brown sugar, packed |
12 slices french bread (preferably 1-2 day old bread) |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
6 large eggs |
1 1/2 cups half-and-half cream or 1 1/2 cups milk |
1 teaspoon vanilla or 1 teaspoon maple extract |
Directions:
1. Butter a 13 x 9-inch baking pan.
2. In a small saucepan combine the corn syrup, butter and brown sugar; simmer stirring until syrupy.
3. Pour the mixture over the bottom of a buttered baking pan.
4. Lay 6 slices of bread over the brown sugar mixture.
5. In a bowl whisk together the eggs with half and half cream or milk, vanilla and salt.
6. Pour half of the egg mixture over the bread slices in the pan.
7. Then layer the remaining 6 slices on top.
8. Pour the remaining egg/milk mixture over the top (make sure that all the bread is covered with the mixture).
9. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
10. The next day remove from the fridge.
11. Set the oven to 350 degrees F.
12. Bake uncovered for 45 minutes.
