This is a very RICH breakfast and very very DELISH. You really won't need syrup to enjoy. :)
It's so easy to make the night before, and pop into the oven the next morning.
This is also a wonderful brunch dish or dessert for something different

Mmmm....mmmm.... good! We used hazelnut creamer and substituted two slices of regular cinnamon bread when we couldn't find thick cut. Naturally, that "forced" us to spread cream cheese on the additional slices too. No complaints!
