The beauty of this recipe is that it's baked, not cooked on the stovetop, and you can put everything together the night before. In the morning, put the soaked bread in the oven, and by the time the juice is squeezed and the table is set, you'll have French toast, hot and sweet, baked to a golden crisp.

This is the best baked French toast recipe I've ever tried. It's so easy to make and it always turns out perfectly. I love that I can customize it to my liking. Sometimes I add fruit, and sometimes I add chocolate chips. It's always delicious.

I've tried so many different baked French toast recipes, but this one is by far the best. The bread is perfectly crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the custard is rich and flavorful. I highly recommend this recipe!
