Great! Very Sweet! Very elegant breakfast. Only problem was when I baked according to the recipe it stuck and did not come out of the pan very nice. I cooked it differently another time. I followed recipe until just before I baked it. I spread the Pecan/Praline mixture on the bottom of a buttered glass baking pan and placed the egg soaked bread on top and baked for the 30 minutes. When done placed another baking pan on top and flipped both pans over. The French toast came right out and looked great.
