Mmm, yummy fat and sugar. This recipe is not for those on a diet. I'm trying to make fun traditions in our family and I decided to make this for our conference brunch. It was yum!
1/2 c. butter
1 c. packed brown sugar
2 T corn syrup
6 (1 inch thick) slices French Bread
5 eggs
1 1/2 c. half & half
1 t. vanilla
1 t. orange extract
1/4 t. salt
Melt butter in small saucepan over med heat. Mix in sugar and corn syrup, mixing until sugar is dissolved. Pour into 9 x 13 pan. Remove crusts from bread (optional). Arrange in single layer in pan. In small bowl, whisk eggs, half & half, vanilla, orange extract and salt. Pour over bread. Cover and chill at least 8 hours or overnight. Preheat oven to 350. Remove dish from fridge and bring to room temp. Bake uncovered 35-40 minutes until puffed and lightly browned.
raspberry cream syrup
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1 pint fresh raspberries
In a medium sauce pan stir all ingredients until sugar is dissolved. let cool slightly & transfer to the blender. blend on high power with lid on loosely. pour into a bowl & stir in raspberries. cool completely as the syrup will thicken as it cools. (I did not put in a blender and it turned out great.)
