Ingredients

Instructions

  • Tear the French bread into bite-sized pieces and place them in a greased or cooking spray-coated oven-proof casserole dish. Any stale bread will do, loaf bread, buns, biscuits etc., just nothing fresh.
    In a mixing bowl, whisk three eggs, then add 1 quart of heavy whipping cream, sugar, 2 tablespoons of vanilla, and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Mix until smooth and well combined.
    Pour the mixture evenly over the bread pieces, ensuring all pieces are thoroughly coated. Let it sit for a few minutes so the bread can absorb the liquid. Gently press down on the bread to ensure every piece is fully soaked. Melt butter and drizzle over the top.
    Bake at 350°F for approximately 45 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
    Prepare the glaze by combining white chocolate chips, 1 cup of cream, and 1/2 tsp of vanilla in a microwave-safe dish. Microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring after each, until the chocolate chips are fully melted. Be careful not to overheat.
    Sprinkle a bit of cinnamon of top if desired. Serve warm. Delicious with a scoop of vanilla ice cream too.🤪
