Baked Blackberry French Toast

OK . . . so I didn't really make this yet . . . but I ate it at school made by our new principal, Linda Ventura, who made it so that we would all stay for Parent-Teacher Conferences that night. It's yummy, and I think Janette would particularly like it since she likes to cook new things for breakfast. Maybe we can have this for one of our Christmas breakfasts when everyone is here. Any volunteers to make it?

Baked Blackberry (or Raspberry) French Toast

2 T. corn syrup
1 cube butter (no marg)
1 c. brown sugar

Mix syrup, butter and sugar in sauce pan and bring to gentle boil. Spray 9 x 13 glass baking dish with Pam. Pour in mixture.

Place 6 slices of a white bread (sourdough is good) over syrup. You may have to “squish” them to fit. Spread 1 c. of whole (fresh or frozen) blackberries or raspberries evenly over bread. Top berries with 6 more slices of bread.

6 beaten eggs
1 ½ c. milk
1 t. vanilla
¼ t. salt

Mix eggs, milk, vanilla, salt then pour over bread. Cover and chill overnight.

Bake, uncovered, @ 350 degrees for 45 minutes. Garnish with extra berries.
