Servings: 10 servings

Ingredients
- 1 loaf crusty bread (approximately 1 pound, see note)
- 6 large eggs
- 2 cups (474ml) whole milk
- 1 cup (200g) packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
For topping:
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Spray a 9x13-inch pan with nonstick cooking spray. Slice bread into bite size chunks and spread evenly in prepared pan.
- Whisk eggs, milk, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt. Pour over bread in pan.
- Allow to sit, covered and refrigerated, at least 2 hours to soak (you can do it as long as 8 hours to overnight for a faster morning breakfast).
- When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350°F.
- Mix brown sugar and cinnamon for topping; sprinkle evenly over the casserole. Bake approximately 40minutes, or until filling is bubbly and top is golden. If the top starts to brown too quickly, tent the pan with foil.
- Serve warm with maple syrup and/or powdered sugar.
Notes
Bread should be 1-2 days old. You can use sourdough, French, or challah bread.
Store leftovers in refrigerator, covered.
