| Ingredients: |
1 loaf of French Bread (13 to 16 oz)
8 large eggs (I only use 6)
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 of salt |
Topping:
1 Cup (2 sticks) butter at room temperature (I do not use this much)
1 Cup packed light brown sugar
1 Cup chopped pecans
2 Tablespoon light corn syrup
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Maple syrup if desired |
| Cooking
Instructions: |
Slice the french bread into twenty 1-inch slices. Arrange the slices in a generously buttered 9x13 inch flat baking dish in two 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 over the bread slices, making sure all are covered evenly with the mixture, spooning some of the mixture in between the slices, too. Cover with foil and refrigerate overnight.
The next day, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Combine the praline topping ingredients in a medium bowl and spread evenly over the bread.
Bake for 40 minutes, until puffed and golden brown. |
