Lightly coat 13 x 9 baking dish with cooking
spray. Line dish with foil, leaving 6 inch
overhang on each side. Lightly coat foil with
cooking spray.
Cut bread crosswise into 1 inch slices, leaving about
1/2 inch intact at the bottom. Slice lengthwise down
the loaf, leaving 1/2 inch intact at bottom.
Transfer to foil-lined baking dish.
In large liquid measuring cup, whisk eggs,
cream, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, salt, and 2 tbsp
maple syrup until combined. Pry open the slices
and carefully pour batter in between so that the
mixture seeps down and absorbs. Wrap foil
tightly around the loaf and refrigerate at least
one hour, and up to 24 hours.
Preheat oven to 375. Unwrap loaf, remove foil
and discard and extra batter. Return to baking
dish. Cover with new foil. Bake about 40
minutes. Slices should be damp but no longer
soaked and center is still soft. Combine melted
butter and remaining 1/3 cup maple syrup in
small bowl. Remove bread from oven, remove
foil, pour butter mixture over top and in
between slice. Return to oven. Bake until
edges are crisp and darker in color, about 20 to
25 minutes. Immediately transfer to platter.
Dust with sugar and serve with syrup.
