Not a fan of this recipe. The french toast didn't cook all the way through and what did cook was gooey and way too sweet. And I normally love anything sweet. I don't recommend it at all.

I thought this recipe was MUCH too sweet. Mine also turned out soggy. I probably won't make it again, but if I did, I would use a fraction of the sugar and probably not let it sit in the egg mix too long, as other reviewers have posted.

This was good but very rich. Mine was a little soggy but not too bad. Next time I won't soak the bread in the mixture too long.

This was very good!! I made this for breakfast for a girlfriend sleepover and it was a hit. I mistakenly bought heavy whipping cream, instead of half-n-half, and I can't see where that was wrong. This was just delicious. Two thumbs up!

This was really good. I dipped the bread in the egg mixture and poured what was left over on top. It did not come out a bit soggy. I also added cinnamon to the egg batter for more flavor.

This was great!! I sprinkled a little bit of cinnamon on the bread before putting it in the fridge. I also baked it on a baking stone. I got it all ready in the morning and we had it for dinner. Thanks so much!

I like this recipe alot but sometimes it comes out kind of soggy on the bottom. I think I might take some advice from other reviewers and not let it sit in the milk/egg mixture overnight - maybe for just and hour or two instead.

This is very easy and good! I just dipped the bread in the egg mixture once and spooned just A LITTLE more on top - so the bread wouldn't be soggy. I also baked on a cookie sheet. I think the biggest tip is to let it "set" before serving...rave reviews at my brunch!

I made this for Mother's Day brunch and have since made it several times. I have to give the recipe to everyone who tries it! It is absolutely fabulous! I have found that I typically have about a cup of egg mixture left over after dipping all of the slices. It works well for me to refrigerate it along with the toast and pour the remaining mixture over the bread after it has been in the refrigerator for an hour or two.

OKAY, I'm not rating this one because I'm positive that this came out so bad because of something I did. I didn't have french bread so I just used potato bread like I always do for french toast. Other than changing the bread and omitting the pecans (family's not a nut fan) I followed the recipe exact. The bread stuck so badly to the pan I couldn't get it out. The pieces that I was able to actually scrape out I served to my kids for a "back to school" breakfast. They said it was waaaay to sweet (and it definitely didn't look very appetizing). They wound up having cereal.

Excellent Recipe Debbie! I made this for Labor Day brunch and my dad and mom went nuts over it. This is as close to a recipe we had at a motel as I could find -- definitely a keeper. THANKS!

This is a very good idea and can be a great starter recipe for all types of breakfast casseroles. I made it plain, just the way the instructions said, and just smushed all the bread into a 9X9 baking dish, poured the mixture over the top and baked it. It came out very firm, like a bread pudding. Im thinking it would ba good with a spice mixed added to it, like Mrs Dash for a more savory rendetion or pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon for a wintery holiday version. I also may considering adding bananas or rasins to it for a fruit nut version. Since my bread was squeezed into the dish, it made a very nice, sliceable casserole that stood up well. The extra amount of mixture used in the recipe actually helps keep all the bread soaked during baking and keeps it from getting too hard. A good recipe, I'll use it again.

Easy to make and my kids loved it. The middle is a little mushy but it firms up if you let it sit before serving. Leftovers are just as good warmed up the next day.

Always a brunch favorite, plus it saves time in the morning since you prepare it the night before.

This was wonderful. I tried it for my mother-in-law. I used only one cup of milk and with the left over egg mixture I pour approx. 1/4 cup over the already dipped bread in the casserole dish. **If making for a crowd use 2 loaves (1 pound each) there is enough egg mixture for both. Will make again especially during school.

I loved this! I altered it a little after reading reviews. I cut out all the milk and used fat free for the cup of half-and-half. I only had "lite" bread and no pecans. It was so yummy and not too gooey inside. The only thing I'll change next time is I'll use less brown sugar as it was a little too sweet and I'll use thicker bread just to try it. Oh! And I also did not let it sit overnight, just for 10 minutes actually and it was fine!

I made this for a brunch and it was the hit of the party. This recipe tastes great hot or at room temperature. I like walnuts so I used walnuts instead of pecans. Great Recipe

I made this for my husband's birthday breakfast. It was very good, but I wasn't crazy about the nuts. Making it ahead of time was very convenient for me though because it meant I didn't have to wake up so early in the morning.
