Ingredients

  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • ¾ cup light brown sugar

  • ¾ cup pecans, chopped
  • confectioners' sugar

Directions

    1. Combine the melted butter and sugar evenly on the bottom of a baking dish. Arrange the bread slices on top, squeezing them in place so that they fit snugly in the casserole. 
    2. Whisk the eggs, add all the remaining ingredients except the pecans. Pour over the bread, letting it soak in. 
    3. Top with pecans and cover with plastic wrap. At this stage the cbread will look dry.
