Ingredients
4 large eggs
½ c. melted butter (1 stick)
1 loaf Texas Toast, fresh sliced bread (not frozen)
1 c. packed light brown sugar
1 tbsp vanilla extract
1½ c. whole milk
2 tbsp light brown sugar, mixed with 2 tsp cinnamon
Real maple syrup, if desired
Powdered sugar
HOW TO MAKE FRENCH TOAST BAKE
Step 1: In a microwave bowl, place the butter and heat in the microwave until melted. To the melted butter, add 1 c brown sugar and mix well until blended. Into a greased 9 x 13-inch baking pan, pour the butter-sugar mixture, evenly spreading.
Step 2: Whisk the eggs with milk and vanilla until well incorporated. Set aside.
Step 3: Over the butter-filled baking pan, place the layer of Texas toast. On the bread, evenly spread a cup of the egg mixture. On top, sprinkle the brown sugar-cinnamon mix. Make another French Toast layer and repeat.
Step 4: Tightly tent the pan and place it in the fridge overnight.
Step 5: When ready to serve, place the pan on the lower middle rack of a preheated 350 degrees F oven and bake for about 30 minutes, covered. Then, remove the cover.
Step 6: Take the French Toast Bake out of the oven when done and let it cool for a little. Before serving, sprinkle with powdered sugar. Enjoy the French toast, baked with pure maple syrup.
