Base Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. 2

    Prepare the Bread

    Cut the bread into cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl. If you are using stale bread, it's perfect for this recipe.

Mixing Ingredients

  1. 3

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.

  2. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the egg mixture over the bread cubes. Gently fold to combine, ensuring that all bread pieces are soaked with the mixture.

  3. 5

    Add Optional Ingredients

    If using, fold in raisins, chopped nuts, or chocolate chips at this stage.

Baking

  1. 6

    Transfer to Baking Dish

    Transfer the mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish, spreading it evenly.

  2. 7

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 45-55 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

Cooling and Serving

  1. 8

    Cool

    Remove from the oven and let it cool for about 10-15 minutes before serving.

  2. 9

    Serve

    Serve warm, optionally with a drizzle of caramel sauce or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
