Baked Lime French Toast

Source: Aldi Doxy

½ cup butter

¾ cup brown sugar

2 Tbsp light corn syrup

zest of 2 limes

4 Tbsp frozen lime concentrate, defrosted

5 eggs

1 ½ cups milk

1 Tbsp vanilla

1 loaf French Bread, cut into ¾ inch slices

Preheat oven to 350°. In a medium saucepan, over a medium-low heat, combine the butter, brown sugar, corn syrup, zest, and limeade. Cook until sugar has dissolved. Pour into a greased 9x13 baking dish. Arrange bread slices in one layer over the lime mixture. In a mixing bowl, whisk eggs, milk and vanilla. Pour over bread slices. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Remove from fridge 30 minutes before baking. Bake uncovered for 30 min.

*When I need to feed a crowd, I sometimes cube up the bread, and pile it up in the dish instead of using slices. I then use 1 ½ batches of the rest of the recipe, and bake for 45 min.
