Ingredients
- 1 baguette
- 8 large eggland's best eggs
- 1 1/2 cup lowfat buttermilk
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Directions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Coat a 13 X 9-inch casserole dish with cooking spray and set aside.
- Cut baguette into 1/2-inch cubes and spread along the bottom of the dish.
- In a large bowl, combine eggs, buttermilk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix well and pour over bread.
- Cover with plastic wrap and press down lightly, so the bread absorbs the egg mixture. Refrigerate at least 2 hours (or overnight) before baking.
- Bake for 45 minutes, or until eggs are set.
- When removed from oven, sprinkle with brown sugar and let stand for 10-15 minutes before serving
