Kneaders French Toast

When Jordan and I were going to school in Provo one of our favorite places to go on a Saturday morning was Kneaders for all you can eat french toast. Now that we have long since moved away from Provo, I still crave their french toast.  This morning I had a little extra time and on a whim decided to try my hand at their french toast. Here is the result of my labors. 

Kneaders French Toast

You will need:

1 loaf of Cinnamon Bread (Like I said, I made this on a whim and just had some pugliese bread on hand from Costco, but Cinnamon Bread would taste much better)

8 eggs 

3 cups of milk

1 tablespoon of brown sugar

3/4 teaspoon of salt

1 tablespoon of vanilla

2 tablespoons of butter

Butter a 9 x13 glass baking dish. Cut your bread into 8 slices. Mix all remaining ingredients, minus the 2 tablespoons of butter. Dip your bread thoroughly into the egg mixture, then place flat in the baking dish. Cut butter into pieces and place over the top of bread. Refrigerate over night or at least an hour. You can pour the remaining egg mixture on top, sometimes I found it can make it too "eggy" if you use all the egg mixture. Bake 45-50 minutes at 350 degrees.

Caramel Syrup:

Now, the caramel syrup is what makes this french toast so delicious, and also so terrible for your waistline.

1 cup of brown sugar

1 cup of heavy whipping cream

1 cup light Karo syrup

Mix together and heat on stove top until smooth, serve warm.

Take your french toast, pour caramel syrup over top, and top with favorite berries and whipped cream.
