Ingredients
UnitsScale
6 slices bread
3oz cream cheese
4 eggs
3/4cup milk
1/2cup half-and-half
2 tbsp sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
topping
1/4cup brown sugar
1/3cup chopped pecans
1/3cup flour
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4cup butter melted
Instructions
Spray 8×8 inch baking pan with cooking spray.
Cut slices of bread into quarters. Fit one layer of bread over bottom of pan.
Slice pats of cream cheese and space them over the pieces of bread. Top with another layer of bread quarters.
In medium bowl, whisk together milk, half and half, eggs, sugar, vanilla and spices.
Pour evenly over the bread and cream cheese. Drain peach slices and arrange so that peaches touch but do not overlap across the top of the french toast. Cover with plastic wrap and place in refrigerator. Let set overnight or at least two hours so the custard mixture is absorbed by the bread.
For topping: Mix all ingredients in small bowl and sprinkle over top of peaches.
Bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes or until knife inserted into middle comes out clean.
