Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 7 cup day-old bread cubes preferably brioche or sandwich bread
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup lightly beaten eggs about 3 large
- 2 cup whole milk
- 0.75 cup heavy cream
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 0.25 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
- 0.25 tsp fine salt
- 0.5 cup raisins or golden raisins
- 1 tbsp coarse sugar for topping optional
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Heat oven to 350°F. Grease a 2-quart baking dish with a little butter.
- Toss the bread cubes with the softened butter until lightly coated. Stir in the raisins.
- Whisk eggs, sugar, milk, cream, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until smooth.
- Fill the dish with the buttered bread mixture. Pour the custard evenly over the top.
- Press the bread down to submerge. Let it soak for 10 minutes.
- Sprinkle with coarse sugar. Set the dish on a baking sheet to catch drips.
- Bake until puffed, golden, and just set in the center, 35–40 minutes.
- Cool 10 minutes. Serve warm, plain or with cream or ice cream.
Notes
Variation: Swap raisins for chopped dried apricots or chocolate chips, or brush the top with warmed marmalade. Storage: Refrigerate leftovers up to 3 days; reheat covered at 325°F until warm or microwave individual portions.
