Preparation

Step 1

Step 2

Grease baking dish. Pour hot caramel in dish and sprinkle with chopped pecans.

Step 3

In mixing bowl, whisk eggs and then add milk and vanilla.

Step 4

Put slices of day old bread on caramel and pecans. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.

Step 5

Pour custard over bread. Cover and put in refridgerator overnight.

Step 6

Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 30-35 minutes or until custard is set.

I have made this in double layer and single layer. If using double layer, sprinkle cinnamon sugar on bread and then add 1/2 custard mix. Then layer more bread on top and repeat cinnamon sugar and custard. It will need to bake longer but be careful you don't bake it and dry the top out.
