Streusel Topped French Toast

Ingredients for casserole part:
4 eggs
2 cups milk
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
4 Tbsp vanilla
1/3 cup sugar
1 large loaf of day-old French bread
Ingredients for streusel topping:
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup butter
1 Tbsp flour
1/3 cup quick oats
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 cup chopped pecans
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cinnamon, salt, vanilla and sugar. Pour half of the mixture into a 9 x 13 inch pan sprayed with nonstick cooping spray.
Cut bread into slices 1 and 1/2 inches thick, and then lay them in the pan, filling completely. Pour remaining egg mixture over the top and then cover and refrigerate. Take out about 30 minutes before you want to bake it to bring to room temperature. Bake, uncovered, at 450 degrees for 15 minutes. Mix topping ingredients together and then sprinkle over the casserole and bake 10 minutes more. Makes 6-8 servings *I have baked it longer because I thought it wasn't done enough.
