Baked French Toast

Once upon a time, yet still fairly recently I heard of a lady who had a sort of breakfast club every Saturday morning where she would try new breakfast recipes with their husband. That sounds delicious! This recipe reminded me of that, and made me want to start too! Although I would probably do it once a month instead of every Saturday. I like to sleep in on Saturdays! Maybe you would like to join in too? We could swap recipes. :)
