Begin by buttering a 9×13-inch baking dish. Arrange the French bread slices in a snug, single layer.
Whisk together eggs, half-and-half, milk, vanilla, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined.
Evenly pour this mixture over the bread, ensuring every slice is soaking up the goodness.
Cover the dish and let the flavors meld together in the refrigerator overnight.
In the morning, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Uncover the dish, dot with butter, and sprinkle a bit more sugar on top.
Bake for 35-40 minutes until puffed and golden. For a brûlée finish, sprinkle additional sugar on the baked toast and broil briefly until caramelized.
Serve warm with maple syrup and your choice of sides.
