Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Skiers' French Toast Bake.
Step 1
To start your delicious French toast bake, grab a saucepan and combine light corn syrup, butter, and brown sugar.
Step 2
Heat this mixture over medium-low heat, stirring gently until it transforms into a smooth, syrupy delight.
Step 3
Once ready, pour this sweet concoction into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish, creating a luscious base for your dish.
Step 4
Next, take your trimmed white bread and slice it into 12 to 16 pieces.
Step 5
Arrange these slices over the syrup in the baking dish, layering them as needed to fit all the bread snugly.
Step 6
In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until everything is beautifully blended.
Step 7
Pour this creamy egg mixture evenly over the bread slices, making sure each piece is well-soaked in the custard.
Step 8
Now, cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours, or even better, overnight.

This allows the bread to soak up all that wonderful flavor.
