This is one of the most popular recipes we serve. Recently I've gotten some requests for the recipe and so it is probably time to but it back up. We serve it with pure maple syrup and a poached fruit compote.
Pam two 9x9x2 baking dishes. Tear bread and divide equally between pans. Cube cream
cheese (approx 1/2" cubes) and divide between pans. Mix eggs, milk, vanilla and almond extracts, yogurt and syrup and pour equally between pans. With a fork pat down bread so all is covered by liquid. Sprinkle top with cinnamon/sugar and sliced almonds. Let stand at least 3 hours before baking. Bake covered with foil in a 350 degree
oven for 1 hour. Serves 12.
