Lightly spray a 13x9-inch baking dish with nonstick spray. Spread dried bread cubes in prepared baking dish.
Whisk together eggs, sweetened condensed milk, pumpkin, 3/4-cup brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, salt, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl. Pour egg mixture evenly over bread pieces. Cover tightly with plastic wrap; refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight, or until egg mixture is absorbed.
Combine flour and remaining 1/4-cup brown sugar. Cut in cold butter using a pastry blender or fork until pieces are pea-size. Cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes or overnight.
