Peach Cobbler French Toast Bake for 8

Instructions:

1. Melt 3 tbsp of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the diced peaches and brown sugar. Cook for 5–7 minutes until the peaches are tender and the sauce has thickened into a syrupy glaze.
2. Stir in the cinnamon and lemon juice, then remove from heat and let cool slightly.
3. Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with melted butter.
4. Place half of the bread cubes in the dish, followed by half of the caramelized peaches. Top with the remaining bread and the rest of the peaches.
5. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cream, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
6. Pour the custard evenly over the bread, pressing down gently with a spatula to ensure every piece is submerged.
7. Cover with foil and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight.
8. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Remove the bake from the fridge and let it sit for 15 minutes.
9. Sprinkle the top with granulated sugar.
10. Bake uncovered for 50 minutes until golden brown and set.
