Ingredients
- 1 loaf 1-2 days old bread French baguette, Sourdough, or Challah
- 5 eggs
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1/2 brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 cups whole milk
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 cup raisins optional
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
Glaze
- 1/2 package cream cheese softened to room temperature
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter softened to room temperature
- 3 cups powdered sugar
- 5 tablespoons milk or heavy whipping cream
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Spray a baking pan with nonstick cooking spray, and spread the bread cubes evenly. Set aside.
- Cut the bread into about 1-inch cubes.
- Next, in a mixer bowl, combine the ingredients: eggs, sugar, milk, vanilla, nutmeg, cinnamon and heavy cream. Mix until well combined.
- Then, pour the mixture on top of the bread cubes. Sprinkle the raisins (if using) evenly on top. Toss with a rubber spatula to evenly coat and gently press the bread cubes under the mixture.
- Pour the melted butter on top and try to distribute evenly.
- Let the bread rest for at least 30 minutes, best for 60 minutes or overnight, to absorb the mixture. Preheat oven to 350 degrees when ready to bake.
Bake:
- After that, place the bread pudding in the preheated oven and bake at 350°F for 50-55 minutes or until set in the center. The bread should spring back slightly when pressed.
- Remove from oven when done, let cool for 10 minutes, and then glaze with vanilla sauce.
Cream Cheese Glaze - optional
- In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and butter for a few minutes until creamy and combined.
- Add the powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk. Beat until thoroughly combined, stopping to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl. The mixture should be smooth and free of lumps.
- Drizzle the glaze on top of the warm bread pudding, OR the glaze can be refrigerated in a piping bag and piped onto the slices right before serving.
