Description

This is a recipe that I use for Easter brunch every year because you can make it the night before and then just stick it in the oven. Just make sure you use your favorite cinnamon or raisin bread. You wont be dissapointed.

Ingredients

  • 8 slices Bread, Cinnamon Or Raisin
  • ½ cups Raisins (optional)
  • 8 ounces, weight Cream Cheese, Softened
  • 3 whole Eggs
  • 1-½ cup Half-and-half
  • ½ cups Maple Syrup
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoons Nutmeg
  • 2 Tablespoons Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • Powdered Sugar, Optional Garnish, For Sprinkling

Preparation

Cut the bread into 3/4 inch cubes. Spray an 11×7 dish with cooking spray. Place the bread in the prepared dish. Sprinkle the raisins on top of the bread.

Cream the cream cheese and add the eggs one at a time. Add the half and half, syrup, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg. Pour this mixture over the bread.

Mix the remaining 2 Tablespoons of sugar and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon together and sprinkle on top of the bread mixture. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and bake for 45-50 minutes until firm.

Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve with syrup, if desired.
