Ingredients

Instructions

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 375° F.
    2. Slice the bread horizontally and vertically to create 1 inch cubes, being careful not to slice all the way through the bread (see above photo). Place in a 9x13 inch baking dish.
    3. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg yolks (reserve the whites), cream, Grand Marnier, vanilla, melted butter, maple syrup, cinnamon, and salt. Slowly pour the batter over the bread, using your fingers to gently pull the bread apart to allow the batter to sink in. Spoon any batter from the baking dish, back over the bread until the bread has soaked up most of the batter. Don't stress if you don't use it all.
    4. Line a baking dish with parchment and place the bread into the dish. Insert the butter slices in between the cubes of bread. Brush the top of the bread with the reserved egg whites. In a bowl, mix the sugar and 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar over the bread.
    5. Bake for 25-35 minutes, until the French toast is golden and crisp. If the top of the bread begins to brown too quickly, cover with foil. Serve warm with cream, berries, and maple syrup.

Notes

To Make Overnight: Follow the recipe through step 4. Cover and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, remove the bread from the fridge while the oven preheats. Follow the recipe as directed through step 5.
