Creme Brulee French Toast

Description:
The most requested French Toast breakfast option at the inn, this is creamy and sweet, so you don't need to add syrup. It's a cinch to prepare!

Ingredients:
1 (1 pound) loaf French Bread (I use something firm, not mushy), cut diagonally in 1" slices
8 eggs
2 cups milk
1-1/2 cups half-and-half cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 cup butter
1-1/3 cups brown sugar
3 Tablespoons light corn syrup

Directions:
Butter 9 x 13 baking dish. Arrange slice of bread in the bottom of the pan.
Beat eggs, milk, cream, vanilla and cinnamon in a bowl and pour over bread slices and refrigerate, covered, overnight.
The next morning, preheat over to 350 degrees. In a saucepan, combine brown sugar, butter and corn syrup; heat until bubbling. Pour over bread and egg mixture.
Bake, uncovered, for 40 minutes.
Note: Place a sheet of foil under pan to catch overflow of sugar mixture. It will save you cleanup time afterwards.
