Grease an 8x8" pan (or similar size- about 2 quarts) with 1 tablespoon of the butter, melted.
Add in the cut-up bread.
Melt the other two tablespoons of butter and drizzle on top.
Whisk together all remaining ingredients and pour on top.
Bake for 45-55 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed. It will continue to set as it cools.
For the brown sugar sauce, melt the butter, then quickly whisk in the brown sugar so it melts into the butter. Whisk in the vanilla and cinnamon.
Pour on top of the bread pudding once cooked and enjoy.
