What a great breakfast dish, Booke's Kitchen. Mine baked up along the edge of the skillet, and while the center receded once I removed it from the oven, the edges stayed high and curled at the edge and kept the syrup inside. It tasted like the best French Toast I've ever made. It was wonderful, and we all enjoyed it very much. Made for Spring 2014 Pick-A-Chef.
