Sheet Pan French Toast for a Crowd

Steps

  1. Heat the oven to 425°F (220°C) with a rack in the middle.
  2. Line a sheet pan with parchment and brush the melted butter all over the parchment.
  3. Whisk the eggs in a large bowl until smooth, then whisk in the milk, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and salt.
  4. Pour the custard onto the buttered sheet pan and tilt it so the custard covers the whole bottom.
  5. Lay the bread slices on the pan in 3 rows of 4, pressing them into the custard.
  6. Let the bread soak.
  7. Flip every slice with tongs or a spatula so the dry tops can soak up the rest of the custard.
