Ingredients
- cooking spray
- 16 ounces Brioche Loaf cut into cubes
- 6 eggs
- 1 cup 2% milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- ⅕ teaspoon nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon powder sugar for serving
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Cut the brioche bread into cubes. You can use a day-old brioche for better absorption of the egg mixture.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, brown sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Ensure that the sugar is well dissolved.
- Grease a baking dish and place the brioche cubes in it. Pour the egg mixture over the brioche, making sure all the pieces are well-coated. Allow it to sit for about 15-20 minutes, giving the bread a chance to absorb the liquid.
- Bake the casserole, uncovered, in the preheated oven for 45-55 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
- Once done, remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Dust the top with powder sugar, then slice it into squares, and serve warm with maple syrup.
Notes
- Make Ahead - You can prepare this recipe the night before. Let the casserole sit out for a half hour prior to baking the next morning.
- How to tell if it's done - You can insert a knife in the center, and if it comes out clean, it's done.
- Old Bread - Opt for day-old or a few days old brioche for better absorption of the egg mixture. The slightly stale bread helps prevent the casserole from becoming too mushy.
