1
Prepare the Bread Pudding
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Cut the stale bread into cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.
2
Mix the Custard
In another bowl, whisk together milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
3
Combine Bread and Custard
Pour the custard mixture over the bread cubes, gently folding to combine. Let it soak for about 10 minutes.
4
Bake the Bread Pudding
Grease a baking dish with butter and pour the soaked bread mixture into the dish. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
5
Prepare the French Toast
Once the bread pudding is baked, let it cool slightly. Cut into squares or slices and heat a skillet over medium heat.
6
Cook the French Toast
Melt a little butter in the skillet and place the bread pudding pieces in the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.
7
Serve
Serve warm with maple syrup, fresh berries, and a dollop of house-made whipped cream.
