Cinna-Meg French Toast With Berries

1. 1

   The night before, slice your bread and put it on a cooling rack to dry out over night. This will help it absorb more of the custard. (Not letting the bread dry out will result in soggy slices that fall apart.)

2. 2

   Rinse and cut up your berries if you like, cover and store in fridge.

3. 3

   In medium size mixing bowl, whisk together the half-and-half, eggs, honey, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.

5. 5

   When ready to cook, pour custard mixture into a pie pan and set aside.

6. 6

   Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Dip bread into mixture, allow to soak for 30 seconds on each side, and then remove to a cooling rack that is sitting in a sheet pan, and allow to sit for 1 to 2 minutes.

7. 7

   Over medium-low heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a 10-inch nonstick saute pan. Place 2 slices of bread at a time into the pan and cook until golden brown, approximately 2 to 3 minutes per side.

8. 8

   Remove from pan and place on rack in oven for 5 minutes. Repeat with all 8 slices.

9. 9

   Serve immediately topped with maple syrup, powdered sugar, and berries. Sausage patties on the side.
