Ingredients:  

Main Ingredients

  • 8 slices Bread preferably stale
  • 50 g Butter softened
  • 300 ml Milk
  • 200 ml Heavy cream
  • 3 Eggs beaten
  • 100 g Sugar
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 50 g Raisins optional

Instructions: 

  • Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
  • Butter the bread slices on both sides and cut them into triangles.
  • Arrange a layer of bread triangles in a buttered baking dish, sprinkle with some raisins if using, and repeat the layers until all the bread is used.
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, milk, cream, and vanilla extract.
  • Pour the custard mixture over the bread layers, ensuring all the bread is soaked.
  • Let it sit for 10 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the custard.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the custard is set.
  • Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of cream.

Notes:

For a twist, try adding a bit of cinnamon or nutmeg to the custard mixture.
