Baked French Toast

 8 bread slices

3 large eggs

2 tsp brown sugar

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1 Tbsp vanilla

1/4 tsp salt

2 Tbsp melted unsalted butter

1 cup milk

 

In a large bowl combine the eggs, brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla and salt. Mix together well using a whisk.  Add the butter and milk.  Mix.  

In a 13x18 baking sheet with sides spray it with nonstick spray.  Pour in the batter to cover the bottom of the pan.  Lay down the bread slices and then flip over to coat both sides. 

Bake in a 425 degree oven for 10-15 minutes (lowest rack position) The bottoms should be browned.  Move it up to the broiler for 1-4 minutes (top rack position), watching carefully.

Remove from oven.  Flip over each french toast so the steam from broiling softens the bread.  Serve with a pat of butter and syrup.
