Bahan-bahan

6 porsi

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, plus more for greasing the pan
¾ cup (packed) light brown sugar
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1⅓ lbs brioche ((you'll likely need two loaves but you won't use it all))
5 large eggs
1½ cups half-and-half
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoons Grand Marnier
1 teaspoon orange zest
¼ teaspoon salt

Langkah-langkah

Grease a 9 x 13-inch (23 x 33-cm) baking dish with butter.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter with the brown sugar, corn syrup, and one tablespoon of water, stirring with a whisk until smooth. Pour into the prepared pan.
Slice off the crusts from the brioche (it doesn't need to be perfect). Cut the bread into 1½-inch (3.75-cm) thick slices. Arrange the bread slices on top of the caramel, making sure the entire base of the pan is covered.
In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, half-and-half, vanilla, Grand Marnier, orange zest and salt until well combined. Pour evenly over bread. Cover with plastic wrap and chill at least 20 minutes or overnight.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and set an oven rack in the middle position.
Bake, uncovered, in the middle of the oven until puffed and golden, 40 to 50 minutes. Let cool a few minutes (it will deflate), then serve immediately. The caramel base hardens up as it cools, so it's important to serve it hot.
