Are you the one in charge of breakfast or brunch on Sunday for Mother’s Day? Even if you aren’t, I recommend printing this recipe and ‘accidentally’ leaving it somewhere your husband will find it. It’s easy and so delicious. But beware, it’s sweet, just like a mommy.
Creme Brulee French Toast – Ingredients
-2 tbsp corn syrup (optional – I omit it now)
-1/2 cup butter
-1 cup brown sugar
-1 loaf French bread, thickly sliced, crust removed (this will give 6-8 pieces)
-5 eggs
-1 1/2 cups half and half cream (I have substituted milk, less rich but works!)
-1 tsp vanilla
-1 tsp Grand Marnier (optional)
Directions
1. In saucepan, combine syrup, butter and brown sugar. Pour into 9 x 13 pan.
2. Slice loaf into thick slices, removing crust and place on top of syrup in pan.
3. In bowl, mix remaining ingredients. Pour over bread.
4. Refrigerate over night.
5. In morning, bake at 350 degrees Celsius for 45 minutes. Tops will be slightly brown and crusty.
6. When plating, flip upside down so syrup side is facing up.
My recommendation: To offset the sweet, serve with fresh fruit or berries and cream.
Enjoy!!
