Recipe Introduction
Assemble the night before serving, then bake instead of fry! This is a good time-saving, tasty recipe!
List of Ingredients
4 large eggs
1 C. milk
1/4 C. granulated sugar
1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg or cinnamon
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 (8 oz.) loaf French bread, cut into 12 (1-inch) slices
1/2 C. chopped pecans
2 T. butter, melted
Vegetable oil spray or melted butter
Maple syrup Recipe
Place the eggs, milk, sugar, nutmeg or cinnamon and vanilla in a medium mixing bowl and whisk to combine.
Mist the bottom of a 12 x 8-inch glass casserole with vegetable oil spray or brush with melted butter. Place the bread slices in a single layer in the pan. Pour the egg mixture over the bread, distributing it evenly. Turn the bread slices once. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator overnight.
The next morning, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
Remove the pan from the refrigerator and remove the plastic wrap. Sprinkle the bread slices with pecans and drizzle with melted butter. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until bread slices puff up and pecans are deep brown but not burned.
Serve warm with maple syrup.
Makes 4 to 6 servings.
