Cherry French Toast

List of Ingredients




1 loaf white bread
1/2 loaf French bread
4 cups frozen cherries (rinsed and drained)
7 eggs
1 1/2 cups milk
1 1/2 cups half & half
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Topping:
1/2 cup butter, soft or melted
1 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons dark corn syrup
1 cup chopped walnuts


Recipe




Cut the loaf of white bread into cubes. Place the cubes into a greased 9x13 pan.
Spread the cherries over the bread.
Cut ten 1-inch slices of French bread. Place slices over the cherries.
Beat eggs well. Add the milk, cream, vanilla, nutmeg, and cinnamon and beat again.
Pour the egg and milk mixture over the French bread slices.
Melt the butter, then add the brown sugar, corn syrup and walnuts. Spread this topping on the bread.
Cover and refrigerate overnight.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Bake uncovered for 50-60 minutes. It can be covered with foil for the last 15 minutes to keep it from getting too brown.
Let set for about 10 minutes before slicing into 10 servings.
Serves 10.
