Instructions
Before Bed
- Slice bread into 1" thick slices and let dry on the counter for a couple of hours (or place in a 300°F oven for 10 minutes using caution not to brown the bread).
- Place melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon on a large rimmed baking sheet (mine was 17.5" x 12.5"). Mix well and spread on the bottom of the pan.
- Arrange bread in the pan over the brown sugar mixture.
- Combine eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and maple syrup.
- Gently pour half of the egg mixture over the bread ensuring all of the bread is soaked. Flip the bread and pour the remaining egg mixture over top.
- Sprinkle with chopped walnuts and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight
Morning time:
- Remove the pan from the refrigerator and let it sit on the counter for 20 minutes
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Bake for 30 minutes ensuring that the french toast doesn't brown
- Serve with maple syrup and whipped cream
Notes
- I use a large pan, and it fits almost a whole loaf of french bread. This recipe will work just fine on two smaller pans.
- You will see some egg mixture on the pan, the bread will soak it up as it sits overnight.
- Any kind of milk can be used in this recipe (including non-dairy).
