Ingredients

  • 1/4 c. butter melted
  • 3/4 c. brown sugar packed

  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 1/3 c. pecans chopped

  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2 bananas

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, combine brown sugar and melted butter and pour on the bottom of a 9 x 13-inch baking dish. Arrange slices of bread in the baking dish, overlapping if necessary.
  • Combine milk, eggs, vanilla, salt, and cinnamon in a bowl and pour evenly over bread slices. 
  • Wrap tightly with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for 4-12 hours.
