Creme Brûlée French Toast from Juliann:

1/2 cup butter

1 cup packed brown sugar

2 T corn syrup

1 loaf french bread cut into thick slices

5 eggs

1 1/2 cups half and half cream

1/4 tsp salt

1 teaspoon vanilla

dash of cinnamon

In a saucepan melt butter, brown sugar and corn syrup over medium heat until smooth, stirring occasionally. Pour the mixture onto a large, greased pan. Spread around to cover surface. Place your slices of bread in a single layer to cover the sauce on the pan. 

Mix together the eggs, cream, salt, vanilla and cinnamon. Spoon or pour the mixture over each piece of bread, covering completely.

Cover and refrigerate overnight!

The next morning, bake uncovered at 350 degrees for about 25-30 minutes. Flip each piece over as soon as it comes out of the oven so it doesn't stick to the pan.

Serve with berries and whip cream.
