Ingredients
1/2 cup melted butter (1 stick)
1 cup brown sugar + 3 Tbsp.
1 loaf Texas Toast
4 eggs
1 1/2 cup milk
1 tsp. vanilla
2 tsp. Cinnamon
1 Tbsp. powder sugar + more for sprinkling
honey or syrup for topping
Directions
1) Put the butter in a microwave safe bowl, melt it in the microwave & add 1 cup of brown sugar. Stir until combined.
2) Pour the mixture evenly over the bottom of a 9x13 baking pan.
3) In a large bowl, whisk eggs, milk, 1 tbsp. of powdered sugar & vanilla.
4) Place toast bread in a single layer in the pan so it covers the whole area.
5) Pour half the egg-milk mixture over the entire layer of toast bread.
6) In a small bowl, combine the 3 tbsp. of brown sugar & 2 tsp. Cinnamon.
7) Sprinkle half the mixture on a layer of the bread.
8) Then arrange the second layer of bread & pour the rest of the mixture of eggs & milk.
9) Repeat with the rest of the sugar & cinnamon.
10) Cover with aluminum foil & leave in the fridge overnight. (You can leave it for a few hours in the fridge but the best effect is achieved when left overnight.)
11) Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
12) Leave the toast at room temp for a few minutes.
13) Put it in the oven & bake for 45 minutes. The first 30 minutes bake with the foil on then bake the last 15 minutes w/o the foil. Bake it until the top is nice and crispy & golden brown and the inside is soft.
14) Sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve with honey or maple syrup.
