16-ounce French crusty bread In a large bowl, combine eggs, milk, heavy cream, sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt.

1 tablespoon vanilla essence, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon salt Pour custard on bread cubes. Press the bread into the custard with a large spoon to soak it up.
Let the dish marinate in the fridge for 6 hours or overnight. Heat the oven to 350°F. Mix melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a small bowl until smooth.
Drizzle this over casserole. 1/4 cup unsalted butter, 1/4 cup light brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
