Lightly grease a medium casserole dish. Pre-heat the oven to 350. Tear the bread into medium pieces. Add to a mixing bowl. Sprinkle on the sugar. In a separate bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Add the half and half and pumpkin mix. Toss the mixture with the bread. Place half in the casserole. Add the raisins and pecans. Top with the other half of the mixture. Bake for 25-35 minutes or until firm and lightly brown. Serve warm with whipped cream. Serves 4-6
