French Toast Casserole

This is soooo good, you might even want breakfast for supper!

French Toast Casserole
1 loaf of French bread (cut into about 1”slices)
8 eggs
2 c. Half & Half
1 c. milk
2 tsbp sugar
1 tbsp vanilla
½ tsp ground cinnamon
½ tsp ground nutmeg

Arrange bread slices in buttered 9X13 pan. In large bowl combine eggs, half & half, milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg. Beat until blended but not bubbly. Pour over bread, cover with foil and refrigerate over night.

The next day preheat oven to 350. Prepare praline topping and spread over casserole. Bake casserole for 45 min. Serve with your choice of syrup. Raspberry is BEST but I used strawberry and it is pretty tasty too!

Praline Topping

2 sticks of softened butter
1c. brown sugar
1 c. chopped pecans
2 tbsp light corn syrup
½ tsp nutmeg
½ tsp cinnamon

Pour all ingredients in a bowl, mix well. Spead/pour on top of casserole and WATCH OUT! This stuff if yummy by itself, not that I have tried it or anything.
