Remove the crust from the bread and toast the slices. Tear into small cubes
and place in a bowl. Heat the milk with 2 tablespoons of the butter and
pour over the bread cubes. Use the remaining butter to coat a 1-quart

eggs, maple syrup, 1/4 cup sugar, and salt, then stir in the rhubarb and
combine with the bread mixture. Pour into buttered casserole, sprinkle
remaining sugar on top and bake for 40 minutes in a preheated 325 F oven.
