Generously butter a 9x13 baking dish.
Slice French bread into 20 slices, 1-inch each. Arrange slices in a prepared pan in 2 rows, overlapping the slices.
In a large bowl, combine the eggs, half-and-half, milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Beat until blended but not too bubbly. Pour mixture over the bread slices, making sure all are covered evenly with the milk-egg mixture. Spoon some of the mixture in between the slices. Cover with foil and refrigerate overnight.
The next day, preheat oven to 350 degrees.
For praline topping, Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl and blend well.
Spread topping evenly over the bread and bake for 40 minutes, until puffed and lightly golden. Serve with maple syrup, if desired.

"I doubled and put in a large lasagna pan. At first I thought the bottom wasn't done due to looking a little eggy but after tasting it realized it was done and just deliciously custardy. All my guests enjoyed, even the kids liked the pecan topping."
