Creme Brulee French Toast

Ingredients

  • 6 eggs

  • 2 cups milk

  • ½ cup half and half

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • 2 tbsp orange juice

  • ½ tsp ground nutmeg

  • ¼ tsp salt

  • 1 loaf french bread (about 1 pound), sliced into 1" pieces

  • 4 tbsp butter, melted

  • ½ cup brown sugar

Instructions

  1. Mix eggs, milk, half and half, vanilla extract, orange juice, nutmeg, and salt in a bowl until thoroughly combined. Lay the bread on a high rimmed baking sheet in one layer. Pour the egg and milk mixture over the bread ensuring all pieces are covered. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge overnight. Flip bread pieces at least once either before bed or an hour before baking in the morning.

  2. Preheat oven to 350F. Mix together melted butter and brown sugar in a small bowl. Put parchment paper on another baking sheet and spread out the brown sugar mixture evenly. Lay pieces of bread on the brown sugar ensuring each piece is covered.

  3. Bake for 20 minutes. Flip pieces of bread and bake for another 5 minutes or until the brown sugar is bubbly.

  4. Serve warm and enjoy! Top with powdered sugar and fruit.
