FRENCH TOAST LOAF

French Toast Loaf image

Have not made this yet, but I intend to for the holidays. Bread is cubed and combined with the normal ingredients for French toast and baked in a loaf pan. Cut into slices to serve and top with your favorite slightly warmed maple syrup. Would also be great topped with sweetened berries and a dusting of powdered sugar.

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

2 cups half-and-half
4 eggs
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
4 cups bread cubes

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350°.
Coat a 5x9" loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients except the bread cubes and mix well.
Stir in the bread cubes and allow to sit for 10 minutes, or until all the liquid has been absorbed.
Spoon into the loaf pan and bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until golden.
Remove from the pan, slice and serve with your favorite topping.
Note: I would make this with challah or any other more substantial bread instead of just plain sliced white bread.
