Special Occasion French Toast

This stuff is really good...taste wise, but probably not the healthiest. We only have it for general conference, but you could do it for Christmas, baby showers, Easter, etc...just any special occasion, and it is so worth it!

1 loaf bread
6 eggs
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. nutmeg
2 cups milk
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. cinnamon

Coat a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray. Set aside. Cute bread into cubes. Beat eggs, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg in a large bowl until smooth. Pour over bread crumbs and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours. When read to eat, make topping.

Topping:
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
2 Tbs. corn syrup
1/2 cup chopped/sliced nuts (we use almonds)

In a small saucepan, combine brown sugar, corn syrup, butter and nuts and bring to a boil. Simmer until slightly thickened. Pour over bread and bake at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes. Serve with powdered sugar, syrup or jelly.

YUMMY! ENJOY!
