Sinful and Sassy French Toast–Win $10 000 From Dempster’s!

Oh how I wish you could smell this through the computer screen, because this my friends is fabulous!!!  Ooey, gooey, sinful and delicious.  Oh and it’s easy too.  Seriously! 

When Dempster’s announced a contest looking for recipes using their white bread I just knew I had to throw my Sassy and Sinful French toast into the ring.  It’s a little down home comfort mixed with a little stolen yumminess from the last brunch at my sisters house.  Ready!?

Ingredients for the Sassy French Toast Casserole Bake:

6 cups of Dempster’s White Bread-cubed

3/4 cup of 2 % milk

1 cup of whipping cream

5 eggs

1/2 cup of white sugar

3 ripe bananas

Dash of Cinnamon

Ingredients for the Sinful Topping:

1/2 cup of butter

1/3 cup maple syrup

1/2 cup brown sugar

2 cups chopped pecans

 

Now it’s time to get your bake on!

-Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

-Generously grease an 8×8 glass dish with butter or margarine.

-Add the bread cubes.

-Slice the bananas and thoroughly mix in with the bread.  Reserving one banana to layer across the top, then lightly sprinkle with cinnamon.

-Whisk whipping cream, milk, eggs and sugar in a mixing bowl.

-Pour over bread and bananas.

-Allow to set as you create your sinful topping.  Melt the butter in a medium size sauce pan; add in the sugar and maple syrup.  Cook for approximately 4 minutes on medium heat before stirring in the pecans. 

-Top with approximately 1/2 of the Sinful Topping and put it in the oven for about 40-45 minutes until it is golden brown! Yum.

*Tip try and resist eating this topping straight out of the pot with a big old spoon.  You will get burned, trust me on this one. 

After you pull this scrumptious bake out of the oven you will want to let it sit for a few minutes before you slice and serve. Adding additional leftover sinful topping, optional.  Serving with a side of fresh fruit and bacon, not really optional.
