How to Make Amazing Overnight French Toast
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1/2 cup light corn syrup, 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, and 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
- Boil for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Pour the mixture into a greased 13x9 inch baking pan and set aside.
- Cut or tear 1 loaf (about 1 pound) of challah bread, brioche, or Texas toast into 1-inch pieces. Arrange the bread evenly in the prepared baking pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 2 cups whole milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bread, ensuring all pieces are moistened.
- Cover the baking pan tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 6 hours).
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Uncover the casserole and bake for 45-55 minutes, or until golden brown and set, and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm, optionally topped with powdered sugar, maple syrup, fresh berries, or whipped cream!
