    How to prepare Overnight Caramel French Toast

    Grease a 9x12 or similar size baking dish with butter. Slice 10-12 slices of French bread ½ inch thick and place in the baking pan.

    In a mixing bowl, combine 6 eggs, caramel topping, cinnamon, and vanilla. Pour the mixture over the bread.

    Turn the pieces of bread to fully coat in the egg mixture. Cover and refrigerate for at least 8 hours.

    The next morning bring the casserole out of the refrigerator while you preheat the oven to 350. Drizzle the bread with melted butter. Bake for about 45 minutes or until cooked through. Sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving.

    I made one mistake while preparing this oven baked caramel French toast that you can see in the photos, but it worked out okay. I overlapped the bread after turning it to fully soak up the egg mixture, not thinking that doing that would cause the covered parts of the bread longer to fully cook. It turned out fine, but I would recommend not overlapping much if you can help it.

    This recipe is inspired by Pennsylvania Bed and Breakfast Cookbook "Caramel French Toast Baked".
