Heritage Recipe for Baked French Toast

My friend Tammy turned me on to this brunch  favorite -- Baked French Toast.  I'm providing the original Baked French Toast recipe and one that I "jury rigged" to make it less fattening but no less delicious.  I've made both recipes and served them at the same brunch and no one  could tell the difference.  Serve with bacon or sausage for a real treat.
