Baked French Toast


1 loaf French bread cut diagonally in 2 inch slices
1 1/2 cup fat free cream
1 cup milk
6 eggs
3 tsp. vanilla
1/2 tsp. cinnamon

3/4 cup butter
1 1/3 cup brown sugar
3 tbsp. light corn syrup

Butter a 9x13 inch baking dish. Arrange the slices of bread in the bottom.

In a large bowl, beat together eggs, milk, cream, vanilla and cinnamon. Pour over bread slices, cover, and refrigerate overnight.

The next morning, preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

In a small saucepan, combine butter, brown sugar and corn syrup; heat until bubbling. Pour over bread and egg mixture.

Bake in preheated oven, uncovered, for 40-50 minutes.

Half way through flip bread slices to evenly absorb the moisture.The bread will look gooey and moist. It definitely has the texture of bread pudding.

Top with nuts, berries, bananas, whipped cream......or serve plain!!!
