This is a great recipe! I made a batch for a brunch and everyone loved it! No need for syrup, it is good without. I will be making this again. Thanks, Senseicheryl, for posting this keeper recipe!

This is very yummy. I made it to bring to work for a breakfast potluck. It went over well. The only thing to note is the ingredients listed give you enough to make two 9x13 pans full. Easy enough to cut the recipe in half, but a bit agonizing if you try to stuff 24 pieces of bread into one 9x13 pan. I also added cinnamon for my own taste buds and think it worked well.
