Delightful peaches + French Toast = Heavenly. Seriously, how could this recipe go wrong?! We enjoyed this in Bald Head Island on vacation with friends. We made it late one night and stuck it in the refrigerator overnight to enjoy the next morning. It was easy and delicious!

Above, you can see the ooey gooey baked version that popped out of the oven. The house smelled delicious to boot!

 

You can bet your bottom dollar I ate this whole portion! I didn’t even have to add syrup. It was fan-freakin-tastic!
