Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Melt the butter in an 8 1/2 x 13-inch baking pan. Stir in the brown sugar and one teaspoon cinnamon. Layer the bread two slices deep in the pan.

Whisk the eggs, milk, and cinnamon together. Pour the mixture evenly over the bread. Sprinkle the 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon over the bread. Place the pan in the refrigerator and let sit for an hour or overnight.

Bake for 45 to 50 minutes or until the bread is browned. Serve hot with the syrup of your choice. (Buttermilk syrup is fantastic on this dish.) Top with caramel whipped cream or cinnamon whipped cream.
