1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine, melted
1/4 cup corn syrup
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

1 loaf sliced unfrosted firm cinnamon-swirl bread
6 eggs
1 1/2 cups milk

  • Reserving heels of bread for another use (feed the birds, they love cinnamon bread) arrange 2 layers of bread on banana mixture, tearing bread to fit if needed.
  • In a medium-size bowl, beat eggs, milk and vanilla until well mixed. Pour over bread. Cover tightly and refrigerate at least 1 hour but no longer than 24 hours.
