Loved, loved, loved this! Made some changes based on other's reviews - 6 eggs, 1 1/4c milk, 1 cup cream, cooked uncovered. Hubby loved it and said this is something to cook for company. Will definitely cook this again!

Big hit at work! I wanted something easy to make but yummy to eat, this was it! Went quickly at work and I got rave reviews. I used all the eggs and liquid, because I wanted to pile the pan high as possible with bread so there'd be enough for everybody. It goes so quick next time I'm going to have to make 2 pans.

This is a very good recipe and even better since it can be prepped the night before. I used a good loaf of vienna bread which worked out very nicely. I didn't have half and half so I used a milk/cream mixture which turned out just fine. I also didn't realize until the morning that I did not have any corn syrup so I use real maple syrup in it's place. It actually made more sense to me anyway, so I think that will be a permanent substitution for me. I also halved the recipe because we didn't need a 9x13 pan for my small family. I followed the recipe exactly other than that. My family really enjoyed it for a special father's day breakfast. The top had a nice crunch and the bread was soft. My son called it "french toast cake" because it had a layer of egg custard on the bottom. Next time I make it I will probably reduce the eggs to 6 as some other reviewers have suggested. Easy and delicious. Thanks for the recipe.

This was a really tasty recipe. I followed the changes that Michelle Mullins recommended (6 eggs, 2 cups h/h, no milk). It was great except I would recommend that you choose a gooooood bread that isn't hard. I didn't like the outer crust being too crunchy after baking.

Very Good! Great for company! I took another's advice and only used 6 eggs, 1.25 cups of milk and 1 cup of cream. By morning, there wasen't any liquid left in the dish. The bread had soaked it all up. I also flipped the bread over before sticking it in the oven so it would cook more evenly.

I've made this twice now, and it is a great base recipe. The first time, I poured off almost all the liquid before cooking, and it turned out great. The second time, I used only 6 eggs, and increased the half & half to 2 cups, but did not include the milk. I still poured off excess liquid before cooking, and it turned out wonderful as well.

pretty good and easy. If I would have known what I was doing I'm sure they would't have been so soggy.

This was really good! I couldn't find a loaf of french bread the evening that I made this, so I used a baguette and it worked just fine. I made it for a girl's brunch with Mimosas and a Grey's Anatomy marathon. It went over very well!

I was unable to fit the entire french bread loaf on the bottom of a 9 X 13...so I made 2 layers....definitely not the solution.

I had to cook it much longer and it was still soggy...it was too eggy and it almost tasted like the eggs weren't completely cooked. Not sure what I did wrong..I couldn't fit anymore bread in the pan. I would love to figure out the problem, because it SOUNDS delicious!!

I made this as written because I didnt want to tamper with the recipe since Ive never made french toast before. This came out VERY puffy. Almost like a egg-puff casserole. The french toast was very soft and did not have a crispy outside. My DH said it was ok but didnt like the technique for making it. I did like the carmel sauce a lot on the top of it...made it taste good. I dont think I will make this again...its kind of weird.

This was fantastic! I used almost an entire loaf of french bread, but reduced all other ingredients to 9 servings so there was less liquid in the pan. I forgot to add the vanilla to the egg mixture, so I added it to the brown sugar mix. I think I prefer it this way because the vanilla flavor is present, and I am a huge vanilla fan.

This is a staple at any brunch I throw. It tastes more like bread pudding - but we love it! when it's done baking I sprinkle it with a little powdered sugar.

absolutely DELISH! I made it for breakfast at work and everyone gobbled it up. there wasn't nearly enough. i used challah bread and i'm sure brioche would be great, as well. my challah was on the smaller/medium side, so i had to pour some of the egg mixture out in the morning. otherwise it would have been baked into a sweet quiche-like french toast.

This is awesome french toast!!! It has a custard center that is nice, fluffy and moist. I included the ends of the french bread (the thick crust), and they did not soak the mixure well. So I will leave out the ends next time. I love how I can prep it the night before and just pop it into the oven in the morning . I will definitely, absolutely make this again! Thank you!

I thought this was delicious. I loved the sweetness of it. I was a little confused on how much milk and cream to use since I didn't have half and half here. So I used half milk and half cream and then a little more milk. I used the 8 eggs, but I think I might use less next time. It was very eggy underneath, but it blended well. I made it for a women's breakfast and everyone liked it. They said it tasted like bread and butter pudding and I have to agree so here in Australia it could pass for breakfast, brunch, or dessert. :-) I'd never made this before so it was a nice change.
