Pear Bottom French Toast

Name: Pear Bottom French Toast
Prep time: 25 min
Cook time: 40 min
Yield: 8 servings
Ingredients: 1 stick unsalted butter; 1.5 cups granulated sugar; 2 tbsp all-purpose flour; 1 pinch salt; 6 whole ripe pears, peeled and diced; 0.5 cup brandy; 1 large loaf French baguette, cut into 1-inch slices; 7 large eggs; 0.25 cup whole milk; 0.125 cup heavy cream; 1 tsp vanilla extract; 1 tsp ground cinnamon; 0.5 tsp ground nutmeg

This is comfort food with a little swagger. Tender pears melt into a caramel-like layer under toasted bread, while the custard turns everything soft and luxurious in the center. It feels like French toast, bread pudding, and pear cobbler all teamed up for one unforgettable dish.
