This is a recipe that is delicious, but I save it for only special days! Like Christmas, or it's excellent to make when camping, too. It's another one of those that you can gain 10 pounds wihtout even having to eat it!

*Generously butter dish, stand bread up in dish
Custard

Cari (Singing Tree Farm) I do a similar recipe and have for a couple of years for my family Christmas breakfast but this year I am going to surprise them with the Blueberry Bake that I mentioned earlier in these posts. I love the French Toast one that I used to do, I also wanted to mention that if you get the thick sliced loaves of bread for either recipe get the loaf with the maple syrup baked into the bread it turned out great for the Blueberry bake! ~Stacey

Stacey, I printed the recipes, I'm sure my family will really like them. I'll try them. Here's another one that is similar. I like it but to be honest, I don't know that I would serve it to the big group.
Berry Baked Pancake
3 eggs
3/4 cup flour
3/4 cup milk
1 T baking powder
2 large Granny Smith apples
1/4 cup fresh blueberries
2 T butter
2 T brown sugar
*Put pie plate in preheated 375' oven.
*Meanwhile, combine eggs, flour, milk, and baking poweder.
*Peel and slice apples 1/4' thick.
*Remove pie plate from oven, melt butter in it. Grease sides.
*Spread apples evenly in bottom.
*Pour egg mixture over top.
*Sprinkle with br. sugar and berries.
*Bake 25 min.
*Serve hot with maple syrup.

I can't believe I forgot!! I was just looking through my recipes and I found this one. The last time I made it was when we were camping and I cooked it in the dutch oven. It is excellent! I printed it from chuckwagondiner.com.
Peachy French Toast
1 dozen eggs
2 cups milk
1/2 t vanilla
1 T cinnamon
1 loaf French or Italian bread, sliced
1/2 lb butter
1 lb brown sugar
3 16 oz cans of peaches, drained
Beat eggs, milk, vanilla and cinnamon in a large bowl. Let bread soak in egg mixture. Melt butter, place in bottom of pan. Add brown sugar to butter, mix well till carmelized. Add in peaches. Place bread and egg mixture on top. Bake 45 min at 350.
Also, I'm sure that I used less sugar-I always do use less than the recipe calls for. I also added some of the peach juice (I don't remember exactly but I'm pretty sure I used at least some of the peach juice rather than draining it, I could have used all of it).

Oh my, I'm with Judy on this post! YUM! YUM! YUM! I'm such a bum. I always order "Christmas breakfast" from Swiss Colony! It comes with everything you need-- pancake mix, ham, bacon, even the SYRUP! The only thing we have to add is eggs and potatoes (if anyone wants them). My husband makes the breakfast while I clean up the mess made after opening presants. I'm not sure yet who gets the better deal..... After reading this though, I might just have to save the "breakfast in a box" for another day and get busy in the kitchen MYSELF! Thanks for sharing ladies. Much appreciated. ~~Tracy

We have the same Christmas Breakfast every year. My DD makes chocolate chip pancakes, eggs, bacon, home made biscuits and Chocolate Gravy. My grandmother made the gravy and when she died it became my job. It wouldn't be Christmas morning without it.

I have so many coming and going all Christmas day, we tend to do a buffet, it starts out breakfast of scrambled cheesy eggs, thick bacon and biskits and sausage gravey, then we go to snacky stuff, biskits and jams with honeybutter, veggys with dips and then later it is honey ham and smoked turkey with all the fixings. So by the end of the day, we are so full it hurts, lol.
