Directions
Cut the bread into ¾ inch-thick slices.
Heat the milk in a saucepan; add the sugar, stirring to dissolve. Remove from heat; cool slightly.
Add the eggs, vanilla, and salt; mix well.
Dip each slice of bread into the milk mixture until well coated. Place in a flat dish and pour the remaining liquid over the bread.
Cover and refrigerate overnight.
In a heavy skillet, fry the bread in very hot bacon grease until golden on both sides.
Sprinkle with confectioners' sugars. Serve hot with maple syrup.
