Ingredients
- 3/4 cup whole milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 8 large eggs room temperature
- 2 tablespoons vanilla extract
- 1 loaf French bread cut into 8-10 slices
- 6 tablespoons butter unsalted
- 3/4 cup light brown sugar packed
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

- Spread the pecan mixture evenly on the bottom of a 9x13 casserole dish.
- Gently handling the soaked bread slices arrange them on top of the pecan mixture.
- Bake for 35 minutes. Cool for 5-10 minutes, then flip the slices and serve warm!
