1/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons margarine or butter
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 pears, peeled, cored, and sliced
3 eggs
1/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
6 1-inch-thick slices French bread
2 tablespoons margarine or butter
Light or regular vanilla ice cream

In a medium skillet combine 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons margarine, and
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon; cook and stir over medium-low heat until margarine is
melted and sugar is dissolved. Add pears; cook about 5 minutes or until tender,
stirring occasionally.
In a medium mixing bowl use a fork to beat eggs slightly. Beat in milk and
vanilla. In a small mixing bowl stir together the 3 tablespoons brown sugar, 1
teaspoon cinnamon, and nutmeg; stir into egg mixture. Dip bread into egg
mixture, coating both sides.
In a large skillet melt the remaining 2 tablespoons margarine. Add bread; cook
over medium heat for 4 to 6 minutes or until golden brown, turning once. Add
more margarine as needed.
To serve, top each bread slice with pear mixture and ice cream.
