How To Make french toast casserole with praline topping

  • Step 1
    Casserole - Slice French bread into bite-sized pieces. Generously butter a 9x13 pan, and put bread into pan.
  • Step 2
    In a large bowl, combine the eggs, half-and-half, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Beat until blended but not too bubbly. Pour mixture over bread slices, making sure all the bread is covered evenly with the milk-egg mixture. Cover with foil and refrigerate overnight.
  • Step 3
    The next day, preheat oven to 350. Spread Praline Topping evenly over the bread and bake for 45 minutes until puffed and lightly golden. Serve with maple syrup.
  • Step 4
    Topping - Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl and blend well. Spread over bread as directed above. You can add blueberries on top. Scrumptious!
