Ingredients
One large loaf of unsliced French Bread about 25-32 ounces4 cups Skim milk 6 large eggs and 1.5 cups egg whites1 tsp Cinnamon ground1 tsp Nutmeg ground1 T. high quality Vanilla extract3/4 C unsalted Butter, softened1C chopped pecans1C. Light brown sugar1tsp Cinnamon1 tsp Nutmeg
Directions
The night before your event

Spray a large oven proof casserole dish with Pam
Slice the bread in 1" pieces
Place the bread in the casserole overlapping as needed to fit
Mix the 4 cups milk with the eggs and spices and vanilla until blended but not to frothy. I use a wisk. Pour the blend over the bread evenly. Cover with foil and refrigerate overnight.

Blend the butter, pecans, brown sugar and spices and save it for the morning.

The next day remove the foil from the casserole. Top the bread mix with the pecan blend evenly.

Place in a 350 degree oven and bake for 40-45 minutes. Serve warm with fresh fruit. I like a blend of strawberries and blueberries.

This makes 16 generous servings- just divide evenly, place your choice of fruit on the top or side and enjoy. The fruit is not calculated in the nutritional information.
