BAKED FRENCH TOAST FOR A CROWD



Baked French Toast for a Crowd image

I needed to make breakfast for a large crowd and decided to try something different. This is basically three layers. The first layer is bread pudding, the second layer is cheese cake, and the third layer is the french toast. I was going to add fruit on top of the cheese cake filling but everyone couldn't decide on any one fruit , so I did not add any, next time I'm adding cherry pie filling. 8] forgot to mention, this was good both hot and cold 8]

Provided by Betsy Carter

Categories     Breakfast

Time 2h50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

6 large eggs
2 cups whole milk
⅓ cup heavy cream
¼ cup dark brown sugar, lightly packed
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for greasing
12 slices brioche bread, day old, 3/4 in (2 cm)
¾ cup maple syrup
¾ cup all purpose flour
¼ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup dark brown sugar, lightly packed
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed and chilled
1 cup walnuts, crushed

Steps:

  • Make the French toast: In a medium bowl, beat the eggs. Add the milk, cream, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt and whisk to combine.
  • Grease a 9 x 13-inch (22 x 33 cm) ceramic or glass baking dish with butter.
  • Working in batches, dip the brioche into the custard to coat both sides. Arrange the brioche in the prepared baking dish, overlapping slightly. Pour the remaining custard over the top. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, up to overnight.
  • Meanwhile, make the walnut streusel: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with a nonstick mat.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, granulated and brown sugars, salt, and cinnamon. Work the butter into the dry ingredients with a fork until crumbly. Add the chopped walnuts and mix well.
  • Spread the streusel on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes, stirring halfway, until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly, then crumble and let cool completely before using. The streusel will keep in an airtight container for 1 week.
  • Unwrap the French toast. Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes, then uncover and bake until the top is golden brown and crunchy, 20-25 minutes more. Remove from the oven and let sit for 10 minutes. Top with the walnut streusel and serve with maple syrup.
  • Enjoy!

OVERNIGHT FRENCH TOAST



Overnight French Toast image

If you have a crowd for breakfast, overnight French toast is a winning idea. Instead of standing over the stove, cooking slice after slice, it bakes in the oven and emerges puffed and golden and ready for a big glug of maple syrup. Try making it with a stale loaf that you forgot to eat amid all the other holiday goodies. A fat brioche, fruit-filled panettone or a braided challah all work well. Stay away from croissants, though: Their chewy interiors are best enjoyed fresh.

Categories     breakfast, breads, custards and puddings, main course

Time 1h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, plus more for baking dish
1 pound enriched bread, such as brioche, challah or panettone sliced 3/4-inch thick
1/4 cup golden raisins (optional)
6 large eggs
2 1/2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch of freshly ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/3 cup pecans, chopped (optional)
Confectioners' sugar for dusting (optional)
Maple syrup, for serving

Steps:

  • Butter a 2-quart baking dish. Butter the front sides of the slices of bread and shingle the slices upright in the dish, overlapping as necessary. Nestle the raisins evenly between the slices of bread but not on top.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, cream, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla and salt until well combined. Pour the milk mixture over the bread and press the bread gently to absorb. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Remove the plastic wrap. Sprinkle the pecans evenly over the top. Bake until puffed, golden and set in the center, 50 to 60 minutes. While baking, if the top begins to get too dark, tent with foil. Let stand 10 minutes. Dust with confectioners' sugar and serve with maple syrup.
