Step 1

Grease or spray a 9x13 baking dish.

Step 2

In a small saucepan, over medium heat, combine butter, brown sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon. Bring to a boil. Cook until butter and sugar no longer separate, about 7 minutes. Pour into prepared baking dish.

Step 3

Sprinkle bread cubes over brown sugar mixture in an even layer.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.

Step 5

Pour egg mixture over bread, pressing down slightly if needed to saturate all the bread with the egg mixture.

Step 6

Cover tightly and refrigerate overnight.

Step 7

When ready to bake, remove plastic wrap/cover and place cold pan in cold oven. Preheat oven to 375ºF.

Step 8

Bake for 55 minutes or until browned, bubbling, and no longer liquidy in the middle. A butter knife inserted near the center should come out clean, not coated with egg/milk mixture.
