The beauty of this recipe is that it's baked, not cooked on the stovetop, and you can put everything together the night before. In the morning, put the soaked bread in the oven, and by the time the juice is squeezed and the table is set, you'll have French toast, hot and sweet, baked to a golden crisp.

- Put a rack in middle of oven and preheat oven to 425°F
- Bring soaked bread to room temperature.
- Sprinkle bread with sugar.
- Bake until bread is puffed and top is golden, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Serve immediately, with maple syrup.
- Cook's Note:.
- The soaked bread can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
- **Cook time does not include refrigeration or bringing the bread back to room temperature before cooking.

[email protected]The bread was a bit soggy in the middle, but the flavor was great. I think I'll try reducing the amount of milk next time.

[email protected]This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think I could adjust the amount of sugar next time. Overall, it was a good base recipe and I'll definitely be experimenting with it.

[email protected]Followed the recipe to a T and it turned out perfectly! The custard mixture was rich and flavorful, and the bread was cooked evenly throughout. A new favorite recipe for sure.

[email protected]This baked French toast recipe was a game-changer for my weekend brunches! The casserole dish made it so easy to feed a crowd, and the bread pudding-like texture was a hit with everyone. Definitely adding this to my regular rotation.
