Ingredients
  • 7 cups  country French or ciabatta bread cubes (10 ounces)
  • 6 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 2 cups  milk
  • 1 cup  dulce de leche or butterscotch- or caramel-flavor ice cream topping
  • 1/2 cup  packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon  ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon  vanilla
  • 1 recipe Browned-Butter Glazed Pears
Directions

1. Generously butter eight 8- to 10-ounce ramekins or custard cups. Divide bread cubes among prepared dishes.
