Preheat your oven to 180 deg C.
Slice a day old sandwich loaf into healthy sized slices .
You will need 12 slices , spread each slice with butter and a jam of your choice ( I use lemon curd / lemon butter)
Now in a large bowl beat together 4 eggs , 1/2 cup of caster sugar ,1 tbs of grated lemon rind , 300ml of thickened cream and 1 cup of full cream milk .
Mix until well combined .
Layer bread slices into a greased oven proof dish .
Pour the egg mixture slowly over the bread slices .
Sprinkle with cinnamon and bake for 35 minutes or until golden brown .
Remove from the oven and sprinkle with a little extra caster sugar .
Served warm or chilled , with whipped cream .
OPTIONAL .....
A handful of fresh raspberries or blueberries can be scattered between the layers of bread as you line the dish .
