Ingredients
Units Scale
- 1 loaf DAY OLD French or other crusty bread (14-16 ounces)
- 6 eggs
- 2 cups milk
- 1/2 cup half and half creamer (or additional 1/2 cup milk)
- 1/2 cup sugar (See Notes)
- 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
For topping
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 3 tablespoons cold butter
Instructions
- Cut bread into cubes or tear into small pieces and set aside. Grease 15 muffin pan holes. Grease it generously. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, half and half, sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon.
- Place a full handful of bread cubes in each muffin cup hole. Press down slightly with the spoon.
- Pour liquid mixture over bread cubes in pan. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a small bowl combine brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Cut butter into small pieces and place over flour mixture. With a fork blend butter into mixture until it resembles small crumbs; sprinkle over bread cubes in pan. Bake for another 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. To check, shake the cups. If it wiggles a lot it’s not done. Continue to bake until it cooked through completely. Or test with a cake tester or toothpick to see if it comes out clean.
- Serve immediately or cool completely before freezing.
