Overnight Caramel French Toast

Overnight Caramel French Toast

Ingredients:

French Baguette:

better if it's one day old--you may use French Bread but it is not as effective because it absorbs more of the egg mixture

Egg Topping:

3 Eggs

1/2 Cup milk

1 tsp vanilla

1/4 tsp salt

Caramel Sauce:

1 Cup brown sugar

6 Tbsp butter

1/3 Cup whipping or heavy cream

1 Tbsp corn syrup

Directions:

1. Slice bread into 1-1/4" pieces.

2. On medium heat, heat all caramel sauce ingredients just until the butter melts. Do not boil.

3. Pour heated sauce into 9x13" glass dish.

4. Combine all egg ingredients into a shallow dish. Dip bread slices and coat both sides.

5. Place coated bread slices in the caramel sauce in 9x13"dish.

6. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.

7. Bake in oven at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes (probably self explanatory but don't forget to take off the plastic wrap before baking).

Enjoy...I have found it is best served right out of the oven....if you wait too long the syrup gets really gooey and sticky and is a little harder to eat.
