Over the years I have tried many different recipes for oven baked French toast. This is BY FAR, the best recipe! I now make this for Christmas brunch as well as several other special occassions (bridal & baby showers).
Couple of things I do differently:
-I left out the brandy (didn’t have any on hand)
-Instead of using French Bread, I used a loaf of country white bread with the crust cut off. To make it thick, I had two layers of bread (I’ve also used 3 layers and put “stuff” between the layers…cream cheese w/ jam, etc…). I put the brown sugar mixture down first (as it says in the directions), then a layer of bread, I poured about a cup of the milk/egg mixture on top to wet the bread, another layer of bread & milk/egg mixture, and the final layer of bread and the rest of the milk/egg. I let it set about 12 hours in the refrigerator. It made a FULL 9x13.
-I’ve also substituted maple syrup for the corn syrup.
