What You'll Need

1 stick (1/2 cup) butter
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1 loaf (16 ounces) Pepperidge Farm® Cinnamon Swirl Bread (16 slices)
1 cup milk
2 eggs
1 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Confectioners' sugar

How to Make It

  • 1

    Heat the oven to 350°F.

  • 2

    Heat the butter and brown sugar in a 1-quart saucepan over medium heat to a boil. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the pecans.

  • 3

    Lightly grease a baking sheet with additional butter.  Place the bread slices onto the baking sheet.  Bake for 5 minutes or until the bread slices are lightly toasted on both sides.

  • 4

    Beat the milk, eggs, granulated sugar and vanilla extract in a medium bowl with a fork or whisk. Dip 8 bread slices into the milk mixture and place onto a baking sheet. Spread about 1 tablespoon pecan mixture onto each dipped bread slice. Dip the remaining bread slices into the milk mixture and place over the pecan mixture to form sandwiches.

  • 5

    Bake for 20 minutes or until the sandwiches are lightly browned.  Sprinkle with the confectioners' sugar.

  • Tip: When cooking a sugar mixture on top of the stove, use a heavy-bottomed saucepan.  The thicker the bottom, the less readily the sugar will burn.
