Oven French Toast

[tinkykat]

1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
2 T light corn syrup

Cook these three until they just begin to thicken and pour into 9x13 pan.

12 slices of bread (I use challah)

Place 6 slices on top of syrup and then layer the other 6 slices on top.

6 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 cups milk
1 t. vanilla
1/4 t. salt

Beat these well using a mixer or blender and pour over bread. Sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. Cover and chill for at least 8 hours (or overnight).

Bake at 350 for about 50 minutes or until lightly browned. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve warm.

Mmm. What is challah?

[tinkykat]

Its the flaky bread almost like a pastry. you can get a loaf in a supermarket or a bakery. If you use reg bread it would probably be really mushy since the challah can be cut thick and absorb the flavors and not get soggy.

DM, if it is sold @ yr stores, Portuguese sweet bread is a good substitute.
