Featured Recipe

Overnight French Toast

Prep Time: 10 Minutes   

Cook Time: 45-60 Minutes   

Total Time: 9 Hours   

Yield: 8 Servings   

Ingredients

For the French Toast: 

  • 1 loaf crusty bread 
  • 8 large eggs 
  • 2 cups whole milk 
  • ½ cup heavy cream 
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon 
  • ½ tsp. nutmeg 
  • ½ tsp. salt 
  • ¼ cup sugar 
  • ½ cup brown sugar 
  • 2 T. vanilla extract 

 For the Topping: 

  • ½ cup all-purpose flour 
  • ½ cup packed light brown sugar 
  • 1 tsp. ground cinnamon 
  • ¼ tsp. salt 
  • ½ cup cold unsalted butter, diced 
  • Warm maple syrup and butter, for serving 

Instructions

Step 1

Grease a 9 × 13-inch pan with cooking spray. Cut bread into 1-inch chunks and spread evenly in pan.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, mix together eggs, milk, cream, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and sugars. Pour evenly over bread. Gently squish down the bread (using a food prep glove if you like) so that it’s completely soaked in the mixture.

Step 3

Cover the pan with plastic wrap and place in the fridge overnight (or for at least 4 hours).

Step 4

Combine all the topping ingredients except butter in a medium bowl. Using a pastry blender or a large fork, cut the butter into the mixture until it resembles small pebbles. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

Step 5

The next day, preheat the oven to 350°F. 

Step 6

Uncover the baking dish and place the topping evenly over the bread.

Step 7

Bake for 45 to 60 minutes or until a clean toothpick comes out.
