Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 1 loaf Brioche or Challah bread cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 0.5 cup butter melted
  • 6 large eggs
  • 2.5 cup milk
  • 0.5 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • Butter a 9x13 inch baking dish. Place the bread cubes in the dish.
  • Drizzle the melted butter over the bread cubes and toss to coat.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  • Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bread cubes.
  • Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or preferably overnight, to allow the bread to soak.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the casserole is puffed up, golden brown, and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let stand for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, powdered sugar, or fresh fruit.

Notes

This casserole is incredibly versatile. You can add a sprinkle of brown sugar and pecans on top before baking for extra flavor and texture.
