I really admire those moms that wake up early and make their kids a nice breakfast. They have pancakes and bacon ready for them before school. Yeah I am not one of those moms! I give them the choice of a frozen waffle, or frozen pancakes, or cereal. Never have been a morning person. Never have never will. So an overnight breakfast is right up my alley!! My little baby that was born yesterday, turned 9! Waaaah! I am getting old. I wanted a nice breakfast for him. All I had to do was throw this in the oven and we had a great family breakfast together with the birthday boy!

Rating: 3 stars Difficulty of Recipe: 3 stars
Things that I changed:  I sprinkled some extra cinnamon on top before putting it in the fridge.
Things that I would do differently next time:  I don’t think an overnight recipe should have the bread slices laying on top of each other. I would definitely cube your french bread if you make this. If you want to lay them on top of each other, barely have them overlap.
Will I make this again? Yes. It was delicious. But I will cube the bread next time.

Cook Time: 40 minutes
Total Time: 55 minutes
Servings: 8

Ingredients 

Praline Topping:

Instructions 

  • Slice French bread into 20 slices, 1-inch each. (Use any extra bread for garlic toast or bread crumbs). Arrange slices in a generously buttered 9 by 13-inch flat baking dish in 2 rows, overlapping the slices.
  • In a large bowl, combine the eggs, half-and-half, milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt and beat with a rotary beater or whisk until blended but not too bubbly.
  • Pour mixture over the bread slices, making sure all are covered evenly with the milk-egg mixture. Spoon some of the mixture in between the slices.
  • Cover with foil and refrigerate overnight.
  • The next day, preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Spread Praline Topping evenly over the bread and bake for 40 minutes, until puffed and lightly golden. Serve with maple syrup.
