Oh Kelly, such a pity your recipe did not work. Hopefully mine will work as I hate a soggy bottom LOL.

Baked French toast--which recipe?
I did make skinless pot stickers today. Excellent. I did make them with beef instead of pork.

So what recipe was it? I have printed out the one from Pioneer Woman that uses french bread.

This is the recipe I used.
1) It was delicious, we all liked it except for DS who had a small amount.
2) Will need to make it the night before Christmas and store in the fridge. It took longer to make than I thought.
3) It also took longer to bake than I thought, so I may have to start cooking it as soon as we get up on Christmas morning.
4) I did not serve it with berries today but I will serve it with fresh strawberries, raspberries and blueberries along with the maple syrup.
Overall I was really pleased with this recipe, I thought it was easy and very tasty and I will be adding it to my Christmas morning menu for this year.

Here was the recipe I used. I am sure I was the one who flubbed up somewhere along the way. I will try that one from Pioneer Women. Looks yummy. http://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/french-toast-casserole

I won't be trying a new recipe today because DH and I are both feeling puny. If I were going to try one, though, I'd like to try South African Bobotie. I had some recently and really liked it. But DH isn't too fond of curry. I guess I should make it sometime when we are going to a potluck.
We did recently make some apple pie bites similar to these:

They were very good and I think might be a delightful addition to Christmas breakfast. DH may make them for a "macho brunch" we go to in August.
The Pioneer Woman French toast looks more like a bread pudding to me. I love bread pudding for breakfast and used to fix it for Christmas breakfast before DH started making his special frittata.

I ended up having pot stickers for dinner tonight. I now have the french toast in the refrig waiting for tomorrow night. Will let you know how it turns out. I'm not a fan of french toast or bread pudding so it will be interesting.
JollyKelly, I looked at your recipe, I bet if you reduced the milk content to 2 or 2 1/2 cups, it wouldn't be soggy. That's too much liquid.
I didn't get to do this, but I plan to work more diligently on it in the coming weeks. I really want to get most of the recipes in my binder tested before Christmas.
I have these "delusions of grandeur", as my Grandmother used to call them (because it was delusional to think it would actually happen or we would actually do it), about all these new recipes I will try out on DH and myself after DD18 goes to college this fall! lol I just get into such a rut of it being so easy to know what to buy to prepare what we always eat that I forget to check my binder and buy what I need to try something new. Does anyone else have that problem...I guess I just need to become more deliberate in my thinking, huh?
Ah, well...I'm just babbling now...
Happy recipe trying, everyone!
