How to Make Cheesy Bread Pudding

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Grease a 15x15 cm (6x6 inch) casserole dish with 1 tablespoon of butter.
  2. Cut 4 cups of day-old bread into diagonal halves and arrange them in the prepared dish.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1 cup of milk, 1/2 cup of heavy cream, 1/4 teaspoon of ground nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon of paprika, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
  4. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bread slices, ensuring all pieces are moistened.
  5. Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese) over the top.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the bread pudding is set, golden brown, and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
