4 large eggs
2 cups of whole milk
1 cup of pumpkin puree
½ cup of brown sugar
2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
1 tablespoon of pumpkin spice

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with butter.
Cut your French bread into cubes (about 1-2 inches).
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, pumpkin puree, brown sugar, vanilla extract, pumpkin spice, and salt until smooth.
Gently fold in the bread cubes until well-coated with that amazing mixture. Toss in the chopped nuts and give everything a light stir.
Transfer the mixture to your prepared baking dish, cover it with foil, and let it sit for about 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake in the oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden and the center is set.
