CRèME BRûLéE FRENCH TOAST
With a crackling, caramelized brown sugar topping, these custardy slices of French toast resemble crème brûlée. Start them soaking the night before, then pop them in the oven in the morning for one of the most decadent brunches imaginable. Even better, you can bake a pan of bacon at the same time. Just keep your eye on it; depending upon its thickness, the bacon might be done a few minutes sooner than the French toast. Then serve the French toast with more of the pan syrup spooned on top. But skip the maple syrup, which would be overkill.

Steps:
- In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, cream, rum, vanilla, nutmeg and salt. Spread bread out in 1 layer on a large rimmed baking sheet (about 11 by 17 inches). Pour custard over bread, cover with plastic wrap, and let soak in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight. Flip bread slices over once while they soak. This can be halfway through the soaking, or about an hour before baking, whichever is more convenient.
- Heat oven to 375 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk together brown sugar and butter. Pour mixture onto another large rimmed baking sheet, using a spatula if necessary to spread into an even layer.
- Transfer soaked bread to sugared baking sheet, placing slices on top of the brown sugar mixture. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until tops are golden brown and sugar is bubbling.
- Serve immediately while still hot, with the crunchy brown sugar side up, spooning more of pan syrup over the top.

Tips:
- Use day-old bread to make the French toast. This will help the bread absorb the custard mixture and result in a more flavorful and sturdy French toast.
- For a richer flavor, use heavy cream or half-and-half instead of milk in the custard mixture.
- Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon to the custard mixture for extra flavor.
- Don't overcook the French toast. Cook it until it is golden brown and cooked through, but not dry.
- Serve the French toast immediately with your favorite toppings, such as fresh berries, whipped cream, or maple syrup.
