Time 9h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Nonstick cooking spray, for coating baking dish
One 8-ounce whole wheat baguette, cut into twenty-four 1/4-inch slices
One 12-ounce can evaporated fat-free milk
1 cup reduced-fat (2-percent) milk
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch kosher salt
4 large eggs
1/3 cup chopped pecans
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • For the French toast: Coat a 9- by 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Arrange the bread slices on the diagonal in 3 rows in the dish, slightly overlapping the slices. Whisk together the evaporated milk, milk, vanilla and almond extracts, cinnamon, salt and eggs until well combined. Pour the egg mixture over the bread slices, taking care to evenly coat the bread. Cover with aluminum foil and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or overnight. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Remove the foil from the baking dish and spoon any remaining egg mixture over the top of the bread pieces to assure they are evenly moistened.
  • For the topping: Sprinkle the pecans evenly over the bread. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of the maple syrup and the cinnamon. Bake until golden, about 40 minutes. Drizzle with the remaining 1/4 cup maple syrup and serve.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but this overnight French toast bake was a disaster. The bread was hard and the custard was curdled.

This overnight French toast bake was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would use less sugar next time. Otherwise, it was a good recipe.

I've made this overnight French toast bake several times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The bread soaks up all the delicious custard overnight, and it bakes up golden brown and fluffy. I love that I can prep it the night before and just pop it
