- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Â Need non-stick frying pan. Also cookie sheet.
- Make the "custard" to dip the bread in. Â In a large mixing bowl whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and allspice. Â Slice the bread into thick slices, at least 1-inch thick and add to egg mixture. Â Toss the slices until all the mixture has been absorbed into the bread. This may take 5 to 10 minutes. Â Completely saturate the bread. Â
- In a large non-stick skillet, over medium eat, very lightly brown the slices in the butter and oil for about 2 minutes per side. Don't cook too dark as most of the browning will occur in the oven as the French toast bakes. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake at 400 degrees for 10 minutes.Â
- After 10 minutes remove, turn over and put back in oven for another 5 minutes to brown the other side. Â After 10 minutes on one side and 5 on the other, the custard should be cooked on the inside and the French toast will be crisp on the outside. Â Traditionally, this is served with powdered sugar sprinkled over the top.
