Інгредієнти

6 tablespoons butter

3/4 cup packed light or dark brown sugar

2 tablespoons pure maple syrup, corn syrup or pancake syrup

6 to 8 1-inch thick slices French bread, cut into 3/4-inch cubes (see picture in the post - also, see note)

4 large eggs

1 cup half-and-half

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

Sweetened whipped cream + fresh strawberries/raspberries, for serving

Напрямки

Add butter, brown sugar, and maple syrup to a microwave-safe bowl, and microwave for 1-2 minutes, until the sugar is dissolved. Stir to combine. (This step can be done in a pan on the stove.)

Lightly grease a 9X13-inch pan with cooking spray.

Spread the brown sugar mixture in the bottom of the pan and arrange the bread cubes in a single layer over the top.

In a bowl or liquid measuring cup, whisk together the eggs, half-and-half, vanilla, and salt.

Pour the mixture evenly over the bread.

Cover the pan and refrigerate overnight (8 to 10 hours).

Remove the pan from the refrigerator, uncover, and place in the cold oven.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Once the oven reaches temperature, bake for 30-35 minutes, until the bread is golden and the caramelly syrup is bubbling (alternately, if you want the golden syrupy goodness on top, the french toast can be baked for 20 minutes, then using a large, flat spatula, flip the bread pieces and bake for another 10-15 minutes).

Serve warm with sweetened whipped cream and fresh raspberries or strawberries.
