Grapefruit or mixed fruit marmalade will work just as well as the
orange marmalade called for in the recipe. Serve the casserole with
honey or pancake syrup warmed with orange rind and a splash of orange
juice (add one teaspoon rind and two tablespoons juice per 1/2 cup
syrup). This easy casserole can be assembled in less than 15 minutes
and stored in the refrigerator overnight.


3 tablespoons butter, softened
1 (16-ounce) sourdough French bread loaf, cut into 24 (1/2-inch)
slices
Cooking spray
1 (12-ounce) jar orange marmalade
2 3/4 cups 1% low-fat milk
1/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
6 large eggs
1/3 cup finely chopped walnuts

Spread softened butter on one side of each bread slice. Arrange 12
bread slices, buttered side down, slightly overlapping in a single
layer in a 13 x 9-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Spread
marmalade evenly over bread; top with remaining 12 bread slices,
buttered side up.
Combine milk and next 4 ingredients (through eggs), stirring with a
whisk. Pour egg mixture over bread. Cover and refrigerate 8 hours or
overnight.

Preheat oven to 350¦.

Sprinkle casserole with walnuts. Bake at 350¦ for 45 minutes or until
golden. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
