How to Make Mimi's Cafe Bread Pudding
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
- Gradually whisk in the milk and heavy cream until smooth.
- Add the cubed stale bread to the custard mixture, stirring gently to ensure all the bread is coated. Let it soak for at least 15 minutes, or up to 30 minutes for a richer flavor. Stir in the raisins (if using).
- Pour the bread pudding mixture into the prepared baking dish.
- Pour the melted butter evenly over the top.
- Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
- Let the bread pudding cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with your favorite whiskey sauce (recipe below).
- **Whiskey Sauce Recipe:** In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1/4 cup bourbon or whiskey, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, and a pinch of salt. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly (about 5-7 minutes). Serve warm over the bread pudding.
