Directions

  1. 1Remove all the crust from the loaf of bread and set the bread aside. Save the crust for later.
  2. 2Grab a mixing bowl and add six eggs, one cup of milk, one half cup of heavy whipping cream and one teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  3. 3Whisk it all up.
  4. 4Grab a stick of butter, melt it, and add one cup of brown sugar to the melted butter.
  5. 5Stir that up really good.
  6. 6Pour the mixture into an 11x13 baking dish.
  7. 7Spread it all around.
  8. 8Grab your bread, start laying it in a layer across, and cut little pieces and put them on the side if you like.
  9. 9Grab the batter mixture and spoon half of it on top of the bread.
  10. 10Throw a layer of cinnamon on top of that.
  11. 11Grab the rest of your bread, make a whole layer, and again, cut little pieces and put them on the side if you like.
  12. 12Spoon the rest of your batter mixture right on top of that bread.
  13. 13Take the spoon and push down on any spot that looks dry. Just make sure everything is completely coated.
  14. 14Slap another layer of cinnamon on top of that.
  15. 15Toss some plastic wrap on it because you're putting this in the fridge overnight.
  16. 16Pull the plastic wrap off the next morning.
  17. 17Slap some aluminum foil on top of this, throw it in the oven at 350 degrees for 45 minutes, but take the foil off for the last 15.
  18. 18Remove it from the oven.
  19. 19Cut into it while it's sizzling.
  20. 20Turn it upside down so you can see that brown sugar and butter just coating the bottom.
