Since things are fairly routine around here and there hasn't been much to share, I thought I would post the recipe for the Caramel French Toast that I made for mom's group today. It is quite tasty and has been a hit both times I have made it. Then I decided to figure the points value for it....BIG MISTAKE!! I should know better by now. For the entire pan it was 78 points. You can get around 8 servings out of the dish and that means you're staring down close to 10 points per serving. Taking into consideration that today I watched Dr. Oz on Oprah talking about health and then watched 2 hours of the Biggest Loser, you can probably figure that I won't be cooking again any time soon. But here it is anyway!
Overnight Caramel French Toast
1 c. packed brown sugar
1/2 c. butter
2 Tbs. light corn syrup
12 slices white or whole wheat bread
1/4 c. sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon, divided
6 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 c. milk
1 tsp. vanilla
Lightly grease a 13x9 baking dish and set aside. Bring brown sugar, butter, and corn syrup to a boil. Remove from heat and pour into baking dish. Top with 6 slices bread and sprinkle with combined sugar and 1/2 tsp. cinnamon. Top with remaining bread. Beat eggs, milk, vanilla and remaining cinnamon; pour over bread. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Remove dish from refrigerator. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake 30 to 35 minutes.
