I made the Baked French Toast for Christmas Eve Morning - when we had my grandchildren over for an early Christmas morning. I loved it, but they all (son and two boys 8 & 12) thought it too sweet. I will make it again and leave off the topping and see if they like that better. I had some ground mixed nuts (pecans, walnuts, almonds and pistachios) sitting on my counter when I put the topping on in the morning. I was tempted to add them to the topping. I think I should have followed my instinct. It would have cut the sweetness. I am thinking out loud here.
There were a few slices left over. I heated them in the oven for myself Christmas morning - What a great reprise!
Overall, I loved it!
Thanks for a great recipe.
