Ingredients

• 6 cups (cubed) Day-old bread
• 2 cups Whole milk
• 0.5 cups Heavy cream
• 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.25 cups Brown sugar
• 4 pieces Large eggs
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoons Nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Raisins (optional)
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a standard loaf pan with butter or non-stick spray and set aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

Step 3

Add the bread cubes to the mixture, gently folding them in until all pieces are evenly coated. If using, add the raisins and mix to distribute them evenly.

Step 4

Allow the mixture to sit for 10-15 minutes to let the bread soak up the custard.

Step 5

Pour the bread mixture into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Drizzle the melted butter over the top to promote a golden crust.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 7

Remove from the oven and allow the bread pudding loaf to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer the loaf to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 8

Once cool, slice and serve as-is, or with a drizzle of caramel sauce, a dusting of powdered sugar, or a dollop of whipped cream.
