French toast bake For those who are not familiar with Texas Toast, it is thickly sliced bread. The slices are about double the thickness of standard sliced bread. Ingredient Checklist 1/2 cup melted butter (1 stick) 1 cup brown sugar 1 loaf Texas toast 4 eggs 1 1/2 cup milk 1 teaspoon vanilla Powdered sugar for sprinkling Directions 1. Melt butter in microwave & add brown sugar....stir till mixed. 2. Pour butter/sugar mix into bottom of 9 x 13 pan....spread around 3. Beat eggs, milk, & vanilla 4. Lay single layer of Texas Toast in pan 5. Spoon 1/2 of egg mixture on bread layer 6. Add 2nd layer of Texas Toast 7. Spoon on remaining egg mixture 8. Cover & chill in fridge overnight 9. Bake at 350 for 45 minutes (covered for the first 30 minutes) 10. Sprinkle with powdered sugar 11. Serve with warm maple syrup (I dont do the syrup part) - Crack eggs & get them started (on low) - Melt butter in microwave - Add brown sugar & stir together - Pour mixture into 9 x 13 pan - Spread evenly to cover bottom of pan - Add milk & vanilla to egg mixture - *Add 1 Tablespoon powdered sugar to egg mixture* - Spread even layer of Texas Toast on butter/sugar layer - *I cut off the crusts...this is NOT necessary....I just think it looks nicer...it was for a bridal shower*- - After you have 1 even layer, ladle on 1/2 of egg mixture - *Sprinkle brown sugar & cinnamon before next layer* - Spread second layer of Texas Toast - Ladle second half of egg mixture - *Spread thin layer of butter* - *Sprinkle lightly with white sugar & cinnamon* (I think the butter & sugar help give the final product a crusty top....I could easily be wrong....but it sure doesnt hurt the flavor....and since this recipe is far from figure friendly...then why not?) - Refrigerate overnight - Bake at 350 for 45 minutes - Sprinkle with powdered sugar - Top should be crusty, middle should be soft & moist, & bottom is just glorious!
