做法
分步操作
- 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
约 5分钟
- 2
In a small saucepan, combine the brown sugar, unsalted butter, and light corn syrup.
约 1分钟
- 3
Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the butter has melted and the sugar has dissolved into a smooth sauce.
约 4分钟
烹饪提示: Don't let the sauce boil, just heat it enough to combine everything.
- 4
Pour the warm caramel sauce into the bottom of a 9x13-inch (23x33 cm) baking dish and spread it evenly.
约 1分钟
- 5
Arrange the thick-cut bread slices in a single layer on top of the sauce, squeezing them together slightly if needed to fit.
约 2分钟
烹饪提示: Using stale or day-old bread works exceptionally well as it soaks up more custard without becoming mushy.
- 6
In a medium bowl, whisk together the large eggs, milk, and ground cinnamon until the mixture is uniform.
约 2分钟
- 7
Carefully pour the custard mixture evenly over the bread slices, ensuring each piece is saturated.
约 1分钟
- 8
Let the dish rest for at least 30 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the custard.
约 30分钟
烹饪提示: For a deeper flavor and even more custardy texture, you can cover and refrigerate the dish overnight.
- 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
约 30分钟
烹饪提示: The center is set when a knife inserted into it comes out clean.
- 10
Let the baked French toast cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes before serving.
约 5分钟
烹饪提示: Serve warm, flipping slices over to reveal the caramel bottom if desired.
