Baking Dish
Large Bowl
Microwave
- 2 cups half and half
- 2 Tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 pinch salt
- 3 eggs beaten
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 loaf brioche bread or challah bread day old, cut into 1-inch cubes (about 7 cups)
Heat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a large bowl add half and half, butter, vanilla, sugar and salt. Microwave for about 1 minute, just until butter has melted.
Add the beaten eggs and cinnamon to the milk mixture and whisk well to combine.
Add the bread to the bowl and stir to coat. Pour the mixture into a greased baking dish large enough to fit the mixture (any shallow casserole dish; I used a 8×11'' pan).
Bake for 30 to 45 minutes, or until custard is set but still a little wobbly and edges of bread have lightly browned.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Drizzle with vanilla cream sauce, if desired.
