Double Berry French Toast Bake- Cheers to the New Year!

This is delicious!

It is a great way to say HELLO to the New Year!

Hello , Double Berry French Toast!



This is a variation on a recipe with the same name in December's Coastal Living.

Marinate raspberries and blackberries in 2 Tbsp of sugar and 2 Tbsp of Grand Marnier for 30 minutes.

Drain the juice from the berries into a bowl with 10 ounces of softened cream cheese. Mix well and spread over 16 to 20 slices of french loaf.

Place 1/2 of the french bread loaf slices in a 13 x 9. Top with marinated berries.

Top berries with the remaining french bread slices to make sandwiches.

Whisk together 1 1/2 cups of milk, 1/2 tsp of cinnamon, 1/2 tsp vanilla extract, 1/4 tsp salt, 5 large eggs (lightly beaten) and 3 Tbsp of sugar.

Pour egg mixture over french bread sandwiches.
Cover and refrigerate over night.

Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 50 minutes.

We served ours with applewood smoked bacon, syrup, and a pomegranate mimosa!

Ring in a Happy New Year with this delicious French Toast Bake.

I don't make New Year's resolutions, but rather approach the the New Year with a sense of openness to what The Lord has in store.

I'm praying for a blessed New Year for each of us!

La Bonne Vie Y'all!
