Pecan Pie French Toast Casserole

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 and grease a 9x13 casserole dish.

Step 2

Slice bread and lay it over the bottom of the casserole dish (you may have to overlap the bread slices slightly).

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, whisk eggs, milk, 3 Tbsp brown sugar, and 1/2 tsp cinnamon, until smooth.

Step 4

Pour egg mixture slowly all over the bread, making sure there are no dry spots on the bread. Press on bread slices. Set aside.

Step 5

In a small sauce pot, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in brown sugar and corn syrup.

Step 6

Once the mixture is heated through and sugar is melting, stir in pecans and cinnamon. Cook for a few minutes and take off heat.

Step 7

Scoop small spoonfuls of pecan pie mixture all over the bread, making sure it's covering the bread evenly.

Step 8

Bake French toast casserole for 40-43 minutes.

Step 9

Serve warm.
