Make-Ahead
French Toast
- 12 large eggs
1/2 cup milk
12 slices bread
1/4 cup butter
- Preheat oven to 500°F
(260°C).
- In medium bowl, beat together
eggs and milk until well blended. Pour half of the egg mixture
into a 13 x 9 x 2-inch baking pan. Place 6 of the bread slices
in the egg mixture. Turn slices and let stand until egg mixture
is absorbed. Place on heavily buttered baking sheet. Repeat with
remaining egg mixture and bread slices.
- Bake for 6 minutes. Turn
slices. Spread with butter, if desired. Continue baking until
golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Serve immediately or freeze
for later use.
Makes 8 servings.
To Freeze: Cool toast slices on wire rack.
Return to baking sheets. Freeze in single layer 1 to 2 hours.
Wrap in individual-serving portions or stack slices and wrap.
Return to freezer. Store up to 1 month.
To Serve Frozen Toast: Reheat single servings in toaster
or place unwrapped slices on ungreased baking sheets and bake
in preheated 375°F (190°C) oven until hot, about 8 to
10 minutes.
