During the holidays, we're always hosting meals with friends. This french toast recipe is a good one to have on hand for a special breakfast.
Overnight French Toast
Adapted from The King Arthur Flour Baker's Companion
6 to 8 slices bread, somewhat stale
5 egg whites
3/4 cup (6 ounces) cream, heavy, whipping, or light
pinch of salt
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 tbsp cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, salt, nutmeg, cinnamon, and vanilla. Stir till smooth but not foamy. Pour the batter into a shallow casserole dish large enough to hold the bread snugly.
Refrigerate overnight, flipping occasionally.
Preheat oven to 350, bake for 40 minutes. Serve warm with favorite toppings.
