1 loaf French bread (day old)
3 eggs
1 cup milk
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 tbs honey
Grease 2 9x13 glass pans. Slice French bread diagonally into 1 inch thick
pieces. In a large bowl whisk together the eggs, honey and cinnamon. When
thoroughly mixed stir in the milk and vanilla. Dip the bread pieces in the
mixture. Be sure to coat both sides. Arrange in greased pans, cover, and
refrigerate over night.
In the morning remove from refrigerator 30 minutes before baking and
uncover.
2 tbs melted butter
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1/2 cup chopped pecans
2 tbs honey
Drizzle butter over bread slices followed with a sprinkling of the brown
sugar and pecan pieces. Top with a drizzling of honey. Bake for 20 minutes
at 350o. Serve with warm maple syrup if desired.
Smoked sausage is a great accompaniment.
Serves six to eight.
