Custard French Toast

"The big secret to this recipe is that the bread must be very dense, very thickly sliced, and must have soaked overnight. Everybody tells me it is the best French Toast in the world!" ...Victoria Farmer

Ingredients:

12 very thick slices dense French bread

10 eggs, lightly beaten

3 cups milk

3/4 cup sugar

1/2 cup apricot nectar

2 Tablespoons vanilla extract

2 Tablespoons butter

1 Tablespoon canola oil

In a large buttered baking dish, lay out the slices of bread in 1 layer.

In large mixing bowl, place the eggs, milk, sugar, apricot nectar, and vanilla. Mix the ingredients together. Pour the mixture over the bread.

Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate it overnight.

In a large nonstick skillet, place the butter and canola oil, and heat them on medium until the butter is melted and hot. Add the bread slices and cook them for 3 minutes on each side or until they are lightly browned.

Serves: 6
