Easy Weekend Breakfast!

Overnight French Toast is great because you prepare it the night before and then just pop it in the oven the next morning. This recipe would also work well for a kid's sleepover or if you have overnight guests.

You could also top it with berries for a burst of color!
Overnight French Toast
1 1/2 Sticks Butter
1/2 C. Brown Sugar
1/2 tsp. Cinnamon and 1/2 tsp. Nutmeg
1 Large loaf white bread (Italian,French baguette)
6 Eggs
2 C. milk
Maple Syrup
1. Melt butter - stir in sugar and spices 2. Pour in 9x13 pan 3. Place bread on top of butter mixture making 3 layers. 4. Beat eggs and milk and pour over bread layers. 5. Cover and refrigerate overnight
Bake at 350 degrees uncovered 25-30 minutes (or longer depending on your oven). Right before you take it out drizzle maple syrup on it and broil 3 minutes. Enjoy!
