Beazer's Baked French Toast

Submitted by Cadylynn

"Our Bishop and his wife had us over for breakfast this Saturday and I have never had a more incredible breakfast! My husband and I came home and said that we should make it our Christmas morning tradition. It is really rich, and not at all low calorie but definately worth it! Best if served with the butter syrup recipe also posted."
