Peanut Butter French Toast

This is my go-to breakfast entree when guests stay over. I can make it the night before and put it in the oven for a great breakfast that everyone loves. The peanut butter can be left out and the French toast is still delicious!—Mary Marlow Leverette, Columbia, South Carolina

    Not a bad recipe if you like peanut butter. It is very easy to put together the night before. However, I had to cook it for 45 minutes for the egg mixture to set up. All in all, the flavor is good.
