Ingredients

• 8 cups Day-old bread (preferably brioche or challah)
• 2 cups Whole milk
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 4 Large eggs
• 3/4 cup Granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup Brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 1/4 teaspoon Salt
• 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter (for greasing)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with the tablespoon of butter and set aside.

Step 2

Cut the bread into 1-inch cubes and spread them evenly in the prepared baking dish.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole milk, heavy cream, eggs, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt until well combined.

Step 4

Pour the custard mixture evenly over the bread cubes, gently pressing down with the back of a spoon to ensure that all the bread pieces absorb the mixture.

Step 5

Let the bread mixture sit for about 10-15 minutes, allowing it to fully soak in the custard.

Step 6

Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set. A toothpick inserted into the middle should come out clean.

Step 7

Remove the bread pudding from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Step 8

Serve warm on its own or with a drizzle of caramel sauce, maple syrup, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
