Freezer French Toast

Serve breakfast anytime. Individual servings you can pull from the freezer one by one. I found this recipe in Better Homes and Gardens magazine. I have not tried this recipe, but I'm posting it for safe keeping.

• Ready In: 45 mins
• Serves: 10

Ingredients

• 8  ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1⁄4 cup sour cream
• 16  ounces  loaf  French bread
• 3⁄4 cup orange marmalade
• 4  eggs
• 1  cup milk
• 1 1⁄2 teaspoons vanilla
• 2 1⁄2 cups  finely chopped  almonds (10oz)
•  maple syrup

Directions

1. In medium mixing bowl beat together cream cheese and sour cream until smooth; set aside. Trim off ends of bread; cut loaf crosswise in 20 slices. Spread half the slices on one side with cheese mixture. Spread remaining slices on one side with marmalade. Sandwich slices together; set aside.
2. In a shallow dish use a fork to beat eggs, milk, and vanilla together. Place half the almonds in another shallow dish. Dip both sides of sandwiches in egg mixture; allow excess to drip off. Coat both sides of sandwiches with almonds, adding more almonds to dish as needed.
3. Place coated sandwiches on baking sheet lined with waxed paper; cover and freeze 3 hours or until firm. Transfer to freezer container or bag; seal, label, and freeze up to 1 month.
4. To Serve: Preheat oven to 350. Place frozen French toast on large greased baking sheet. Bake 30-35 minutes or until golden and heated through, turning once. Serve with maple syrup.
