1 loaf french bread, cut into thick slices
lots of brown sugar (or if you're A type - 1 1/2 cup)
about 1 stick butter
4 eggs
2 cups milk
1/2 tsp cinnamon
dash nutmeg
Directions:
Mix together in a pan:
brown sugar and enough butter to make a syrupy mixture
Melt butter and brown sugar together stirring frequently.
Spray a 9x13 pan (important!) with cooking spray. Pour mixture on the bottom so it's about 1/8 inch thick. Lay the bread slices on top of it.
Mix together eggs, milk, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Pour egg mix over the bread. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
In the morning, preheat the oven to 350 and uncover the baking dish. Bake for 30 min. You can serve with toppings of your choice. It's already very sweet - we eat it as is, but it's also good with fruit.
If you do 'breakfast for dinner', this can be made during the day anytime up to about 2 hours before cooking time. This will give it time to soak up the egg mixture.
