3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup chopped pecans
Nonstick cooking spray

1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon Distilled Chai
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 large egg + 1 large egg yolk
2 1/2 cups sour dough bread cubes
Caramel sauce
INSTRUCTIONS
Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a small pan over medium low heat. Add the pecans and toast until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Transfer nuts to a bowl; set aside.
Preheat the oven to 325F. Apply a thin layer of cooking spray to a 6-cup muffin pan.
Melt remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in a small pot over medium low heat; set aside.
In a large bowl, combine half and half, sugar, Distilled Chai and maple syrup. Whisk in the egg and egg yolk and melted butter. Add the bread cubes, and gently press them to absorb as much of the egg mixture as possible. Let the bread mixture sit at room temperature for 5 minutes.
