Preparation

Step 1

1. Place the bread cubes into a greased 3-quart shallow baking dish. Beat the eggs, milk and vanilla (and extra cinnamon, if desired) in a medium bowl with a fork or whisk. Pour the milk mixture over the bread cubes. Stir and press the bread cubes into the milk mixture to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or overnight.
2. Heat the oven to 350°F. Uncover the baking dish.
3. Bake for 50 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. (SUGGESTION: Cook slightly more than 50 minutes - knife should be dry.) Sprinkle with the confectioners' sugar. Serve with the syrup, if desired.

Tip: This recipe will work with any of the Pepperidge Farm® Swirl Breads (Cinnamon, Raisin Cinnamon or Brown Sugar Cinnamon)
