Baked French Toast Casserole
DH's Aunt made this on Christmas morning - and it was DELICIOUS!
She used walnuts instead of pralines!
Baked French Toast Casserole w/ Praline Topping
1 loaf French bread (13 to 16 ounces)
8 large eggs
2 cups half-and-half
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Dash salt
Praline Topping, recipe follows
Maple syrup
Slice French bread into 20 slices, 1-inch each. Arrange slices in a generously buttered 9 by 13-inch flat baking dish in 2 rows, overlapping the slices. In a large bowl, combine the eggs, half-and-half, milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt and beat with a rotary beater or whisk until blended but not too bubbly. Pour mixture over the bread slices, making sure all are covered evenly with the milk-egg mixture. Spoon some of the mixture in between the slices. Cover with foil and refrigerate overnight.
The next day, preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Spread Praline Topping evenly over the bread and bake for 40 minutes, until puffed and lightly golden. Serve with maple syrup.
Praline Topping:
1/2 pound (2 sticks) butter
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 cup chopped pecans
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl and blend well. Makes enough for Baked French Toast Casserole.

Re: Baked French Toast Casserole
yumm!! my friend makes something like this... but with like a butterscotch topping. so yummy!!
i dont have the recipe, but its great to make if you are having people staying over your house for the holidays and want to give them breakfast in the morning, but not do all the work- lol you can make it ahead of time, and just pop it in the oven in the morning to cook.

Someone actually made the Creme Brulee french toast for the Yom Kippur break fast meal we went to this year. It was to DIE for!

Yeah, it's delicious...and the best part was that you assemble it the night before...so it's less work the next day. My family is still talking about it, and I made it in May!
