Baked French Toast with Pecan Praline Topping


Recipe by: Paula Dean


First seen on Sweet Cheeks in the Kitchen





Serves 6-8





1 loaf French Bread


8 large eggs


2 cups half-and-half


1 cup milk


2 tablespoons sugar


1 tablespoon vanilla extract


1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon


1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg


Dash salt


Praline Topping, recipe follows





Directions


Slice French bread into 20 slices, 1-inch thick each. Arrange slices in a generously buttered 9 by 13-inch flat baking dish in 2 rows, overlapping the slices.





In a large bowl, combine the eggs, half-and-half, milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt and beat with a whisk until blended but not too bubbly. Pour mixture over the bread slices, making sure all are covered evenly with the milk-egg mixture. Spoon some of the mixture in between the slices. Cover with foil and refrigerate overnight.











The next day, preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spread Praline Topping evenly over the bread and bake for 45 minutes, until puffed and lightly golden.





Praline Topping:


1/2 pound (2 sticks) butter


1 cup packed light brown sugar


1 cup chopped pecans


2 tablespoons light corn syrup


1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon


1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
