of holiday guests this season? Try this. Whip up a batch of baked French toasts. Now, this is so fast. It takes about 20 minutes to throw together, and you can do it the night before, and then just pop it in the oven and you've got breakfast ready for your guests. Now, I love this because it starts with a loaf of cinnamon swirl bread, which happens to be my favorite. Cut it into cubes and then dry the cubes. Now, the quickest trick I find is to just spread the cubes into a large baking pan, and then bake it at 300 degrees for 10 to 15 minutes or until your bread is, you know, kind of dry and crisp.

Once I get all of my biscuits on the baking sheet, you're gonna want to pop that in the freezer, and it takes about an hour or two to get the mounds nice and firm. And then, so I have more room in my freezer, I'm gonna take my mounds off the baking sheet and put `em in a large plastic bag. When you're ready to bake your biscuits, just take `em out of the freezer. Straight from the frozen state, you're gonna put them on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. And if you don't have parchment paper, you can use foil. And here, you wanna leave a couple inches between the

of sugar. After the 4 teaspoons of sugar, goes 4 teaspoons of baking powder, and then a teaspoon of salt. I like to whisk these ingredients together, just because it gets `em really well dispersed.

one, and you just simply pour it into a 15 x 10-inch baking pan. And what I really like to do is actually put the pan on the rack in my oven first and then pour the omelets in.
