CRèME BRûLéE FRENCH TOAST
With a crackling, caramelized brown sugar topping, these custardy slices of French toast resemble crème brûlée. Start them soaking the night before, then pop them in the oven in the morning for one of the most decadent brunches imaginable. Even better, you can bake a pan of bacon at the same time. Just keep your eye on it; depending upon its thickness, the bacon might be done a few minutes sooner than the French toast. Then serve the French toast with more of the pan syrup spooned on top. But skip the maple syrup, which would be overkill.

Steps:
- In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, cream, rum, vanilla, nutmeg and salt. Spread bread out in 1 layer on a large rimmed baking sheet (about 11 by 17 inches). Pour custard over bread, cover with plastic wrap, and let soak in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight. Flip bread slices over once while they soak. This can be halfway through the soaking, or about an hour before baking, whichever is more convenient.
- Heat oven to 375 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk together brown sugar and butter. Pour mixture onto another large rimmed baking sheet, using a spatula if necessary to spread into an even layer.
- Transfer soaked bread to sugared baking sheet, placing slices on top of the brown sugar mixture. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until tops are golden brown and sugar is bubbling.
- Serve immediately while still hot, with the crunchy brown sugar side up, spooning more of pan syrup over the top.

CREME BRULEE FRENCH TOAST
You won't believe how easy it is to give French toast a crackly, crunchy caramelized sugar coating. This breakfast or brunch recipe works best with day-old bread. If using fresh bread, reduce the soaking time by half.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
- In a large shallow dish, whisk together eggs, milk, brown sugar, vanilla and a large pinch of salt. Add 4 slices of bread in a single layer and let soak 1 minute. Flip bread and sprinkle each evenly with 2 to 3 teaspoons of granulated sugar, pressing gently to adhere.
- Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Lift bread from egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off. Add to pan, sugar side down. Reduce heat to medium. Sprinkle each slice with 2 to 3 teaspoons granulated sugar, pressing gently to adhere. Cook until a crust forms on the bottom and the toast is golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Flip and cook until a golden crust forms on the second side, 4 to 5 minutes more. Reduce heat if browning too quickly. Keep warm in oven while cooking remaining batches. Wipe skillet clean and repeat with remaining butter and bread. Serve warm with fresh fruit and a dollop of creme fraiche.

- Cover the baking dish tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or overnight. The longer the bread soaks in custard mixture, the more flavorful it will be.

- For a crispy topping, use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar on top of the French toast.
- Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as fresh berries, whipped cream, or maple syrup.
