Ingredients

  • 17 oz loaves - brioche bread
  • 6 - eggs
  • 2 cup - whole milk
  • ¼ cup - light brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoon - pure vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon - ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9x13'' baking dish.
  2. Cut the bread 1-inch cubes. Be gentle, don't squish the bread.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
  4. Add the bread one handful at a time to the mixing bowl, stirring gently to coat the bread evenly.
  5. Pour the coated bread into the greased baking dish and spread evenly.
  6. Sprinkle chopped nuts evenly over the casserole.
  7. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Drizzle the brown sugar butter mixture over the casserole.
  8. Bake the casserole uncovered for 40 to 45 minutes. Cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. The casserole will rise as it bakes and settle back down as it cools.
  9. Serve with berries, powdered sugar, and maple syrup or pancake syrup. (optional)
