List of Ingredients

1 loaf day-old cinnamon-raisin bread sliced
3 eggs lightly beaten
1 1/2 cups half-and-half
1 cup heavy (whipping) cream
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Warm maple syrup optional


Recipe

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line bottom of greased 8-inch square baking pan with 4 slices of bread, cutting to fit. Arrange 8 more slices over the bottom layer, overlapping them in 2 rows. Press down firmly. (You will have a few slices of bread left over.) Whisk together eggs, half-and-half, cream, sugar, vanilla and cinnamon in medium bowl until well combined. Pour egg mixture evenly over bread. Cover tightly with foil. Bake 40 minutes. Remove foil; bake 10 minutes. Let sit 10 minutes before serving. Serve with warm maple syrup. Yield: 6 servings.
