- In a small saucepan, heat the half-and-half with the cinnamon, just until bubbles form around the side of the pan. Remove from the heat; set aside to steep for 30 minutes.

Bake until the toasts are warmed through and slightly puffy, about 8 to 10 minutes.

BETHIE'S BAKED FRENCH TOAST
Well.... it is my humble opinion that the baked french toast recipes that sit overnight are soggy & mushy. So I tried this. Then added some stuff. And crossed my fingers. The topping idea I hijacked from another recipe online then adjusted to my personal taste. I do hope you enjoy; my family swooned so I came running here to post. ;) I think you could add any dried fruit or even fresh fruit - apples, pears, bananas - cut up into bite sized pieces. I think adding orange zest to the topping might be yummy, too. Go ahead...make it your own!

Steps:
- The night before, thickly slice the bread & lay out on a cooling rack.
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Spray a 9x13 pan well. Tear up the dried bread slices into bite sized pieces into the pan. Sprinkle with raisins & coconut.
- In an 8c measuring bowl, whisk eggs. Add milk & cream (you can use whatever combination of dairy you want. I have skim milk in the fridge so I added some cream. If I had whole milk, I would have used that & skipped the cream). Add sugar, vanilla, cinnamon & whisk thoroughly. Carefully pour over the bread. With a spatula or your (clean) hands, carefully push down to make sure it's all wet. Let sit 15 minutes or so.
- For the topping:.
- In a small bowl, combine butter, brown sugar & cinnamon. I mushied it all up thoroughly with my hands. Spread on top of the french toast mixture. It doesn't spread very easily; I used my hands. Sprinkle almonds on top. I sprinkled almonds on only 1/2 because dd doesn't care for nuts. ;).
- You may want to consider putting a cookie sheet under the baking dish in case there are any spills. Bake in preheated oven 50 minutes or until toasty on top & set. Let sit for 10 minutes before serving. Pour just a little warmed pure maple syrup on top.
- Enjoy. :).

BLINTZ BAKED FRENCH TOAST
The perfect make-ahead brunch, this casserole has the flavors of a blintz in French toast form. Instead of the more traditional cottage cheese, creamy ricotta goes into the custard poured on top of the challah, and everything is baked until crisp on the outside and pillowy on the inside. This recipe comes from Molly Yeh, the host of the cooking show Girl Meets Farm.

OVEN-BAKED FRENCH TOAST WITH MIXED BERRY SAUCE
As meals go, breakfast typically is the least expensive of the day. Eggs, bread and milk are relatively cheap and with the right recipe can become more than the usual omelettes and toast. Oven-baked French toast with mixed berry sauce is inexpensive to prepare and is impressive enough for company, yet simple enough to make for a Sunday brunch with family. The easy-to-make-sauce uses inexpensive frozen mixed berries, but the recipe is flexible. An equal amount of any frozen berries can be substituted. The sauce will keep, in an airtight container, for up to a week.

Tips:
- Use a good quality bread for your French toast. A sturdy bread, such as a French baguette or brioche, will hold up better to the custard and cooking process.
- Make sure your custard is well-seasoned. Add a pinch of salt and a dash of cinnamon to the custard to enhance the flavor.
- Cook your French toast over medium heat. This will help to prevent the bread from burning and allow it to cook evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking your French toast. This will prevent the bread from cooking evenly and may cause it to become soggy.
- Serve your French toast immediately with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include butter, syrup, fruit, and whipped cream.
