Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup Sugar In The Raw®
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 3 tablespoons P.S. Flavor!™ Mai Chai or cinnamon, divided
- 1 pound baguette or loaf rustic bread, cut into 3/4-inch cubes
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- Olive oil, for spritzing
- 5 large eggs
- 1 1/4 cups 2% milk
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Whipped cream or vanilla Greek yogurt, for topping
- Fresh raspberries or sliced strawberries, for topping
Directions
- Add butter, sugar, maple syrup and 1 tablespoon of Mai Chai to a microwave-safe bowl to create chai sugar mixture. Microwave for 1-2 minutes until the sugar dissolves. Stir to combine.
- Lightly grease a 9 x 13-inch pan with cooking spray.
- Spread the chai sugar mixture in the bottom of the pan.
- In a large bowl, spritz bread cubes and pecans with oil (or nonstick spray) and toss in remaining Mai Chai.
- In a bowl or liquid measuring cup, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla and salt.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bread and toss well, coating each cube. Top the chai sugar mixture with the bread and pecans.
- Cover the pan and refrigerate overnight (8-10 hours).
- Remove the pan from the refrigerator, uncover and place in cold oven.
- Heat oven to 350 F. Once the oven reaches temperature, bake for 30-35 minutes, until the bread is golden and the caramelly syrup is bubbling.
- Serve immediately with whipped cream or yogurt and fresh raspberries or strawberries.
