Decadent caramel pecan French toast - make ahead for a hassle-free brunch!
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup whipping cream
  • 1 tablespoon real maple syrup or light corn syrup
  • 1 cup pecan halves
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 cup half-and-half
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 8 diagonally cut slices (3/4 inch thick) French bread
Instructions:
  • - Grease a 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray. - In a 2-quart saucepan, combine all topping ingredients except pecans. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until smooth and avoid boiling. - Spread the topping in the baking dish and sprinkle with pecans.
  • First, in a shallow bowl, gracefully whisk together the eggs. Then, add the half-and-half, cinnamon, and vanilla, and whisk until perfectly combined. Gently dip the bread slices into the luxurious egg mixture, ensuring they soak up all the goodness. Carefully place the bread slices over the topping in the dish. Cover the dish, and let it chill in the refrigerator for 8 hours or overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Bake the uncovered dish for 20-25 minutes until bubbly and toast is golden brown. Let it cool for 3 minutes. Flip a large heatproof serving platter upside down over the baking dish, then invert both. Remove the dish, scraping any extra caramel topping onto the French toast. Serve right away.
