Ingredients:
2 cups whole milk |
1/2 cup sugar |
3 teaspoons unsalted butter |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
4 eggs |
5 slices soft whole-wheat bread, each cut in half |
2 pears |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/4 pound thinly sliced cheddar |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 375° F. Butter a 9-inch square pan.
2. In a saucepan, heat milk, sugar, butter, and salt until small bubbles form. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, then add the warm milk mixture in a slow stream, whisking constantly. Layer the square pan with bread. Top with pears that have been peeled, cored, and cut into eighths. Pour the milk-egg mixture into the baking pan and sprinkle with cinnamon. Bake until golden, about 35 minutes. Top with Cheddar and bake until the cheese is melted, 5 to 10 minutes (optional). Serve warm.
