Another winner from the Bed & Breakfast website - this is very good! Had it this morning - no champagne...bloody marys instead.

Oven to 350. Butter an 8 inch square pan. In large bowl whisk eggs - add sugar, milk, melted butter, cinnamon and salt. Whisk again until sugar is dissolved.

I had to bake a little longer, but it was probably because my bread really was not old - it was a little too fresh.

Retired and having fun writing cookbooks, tasting wine and sharing recipes with all my friends.
