Pour in milk, cream, sugar and vanilla extract and whisk until well blended.

vanilla extract2 tsp

Dip slices of French bread into egg mixture letting it soak briefly (it should soak almost nearly through, it may be helpful to gently squeeze like a sponge to absorb into center and gently squeeze some of the excess out).

Transfer slices to baking dish and align in rows. Repeat dipping and aligning process until all of the slices are used up.

Transfer to oven and bake uncovered until cooked through about 40 to ⏱️ 45 minutes (it shouldn't be soggy it should set). Note that you may need to tent with foil during the last 10 to ⏱️ 15 minutes if you find it's browning too much on top depending on your oven.

Let cool slightly then cut into squares and serve with maple syrup or other syrup or topping of choice.
