Overnight French Toast II

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons corn syrup
• 1/2 cup butter
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 (1 pound) loaf French bread, sliced
• 5 eggs
• 1 1/2 cups milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions

Combine the corn syrup, butter, and brown sugar in a small saucepan and simmer until the sugar has melted. Pour this mixture over the bottom of a greased 9×13 inch casserole dish.

Place the bread slices over the sugar-butter mixture in the dish. In a bowl, beat together the eggs, milk, vanilla, and salt; pour this mixture over the bread. Cover the dish and let it stand in the refrigerator overnight.

The next morning, preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Uncover the pan and bake for 45 minutes. Serve while hot or warm or the French toast will harden in the pan. It can be reheated.
