How to Make New Orleans Style Bread Pudding
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Cut the French bread into 1-inch cubes. If desired, remove the crusts.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, milk, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and spices.
- Add the bread cubes to the custard mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated. Let it soak for at least 15-20 minutes, or until the bread is fully saturated.
- Pour the bread pudding mixture into the prepared baking dish.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the pudding is set and golden brown on top. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
- Let the bread pudding cool slightly before serving. Dust with powdered sugar (optional) and enjoy!
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra decadent treat.
