French Toast Casserole

½ a loaf of French bread (about 8 oz) cut into cubes
½ cup butter
1 cup packed brown sugar
6 eggs
2 cups milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoons cinnamon divided
1 Tablespoon brown sugar for topping
powdered sugar for topping optional

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Butter a 13x9 inch baking pan and set aside.
In a small sauce pan, melt butter over medium heat. Once butter has melted, stir in brown sugar until dissolved and mixture is smooth. Pour mixture into the bottom of a 9x13 pan and spread evenly.
Add bread cubes to the pan, spreading over the top of the brown sugar/butter mixture.
In a medium sized bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla, and 1 tsp of cinnamon. Pour egg mixture over the top of bread cubes, insuring that all pieces of bread are saturated. Sprinkle with remaining 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and 1 tablespoon of brown sugar.
Bake in preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until top is golden brown. Remove from oven and sprinkle with powdered sugar if desired. Enjoy!
