Ingredients List
- 1 loaf french bread, cut into 1-inch cubes (10 cups)
- 8 eggs
- 3 cups half and half (or cream if you want it silky rich)
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 12 strips of bacon, cooked and broken into pieces.
- Topping:
- 2 tablespoons butter, cubed
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- maple syrup
Directions
1. Using a serrated knife cube your french bread into one inch pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs, cream, sugar, vanilla and salt. Add bread and mix with egg mixture to coat. Add bacon pieces and mix again.
2. Grease a 13X9 baking dish (those non stick glass ones are awesome). Pour all your eggy bready bacony mixture into the baking dish. Cover and place in fridge overnight.
3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Uncover and give the bread another stir. Sprinkle cinnamon sugar all over the bread cubes and dot with butter. Cover with non stick foil and bake for 45-50 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean.
4. Serve with maple syrup.
5. So rich and creamy, I love the smokey bacon with the sweet maple and the not really sweet eggy bread.
