How to Make New Orleans Style Bread Pudding
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, granulated sugar, brown sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
- Add the cubed stale bread, raisins (if using), and rum (if using) to the wet ingredients. Gently toss to coat the bread evenly. Let it sit for 15-20 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the custard.
- 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 and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread pudding cool slightly before serving. Dust with powdered sugar (optional) and enjoy!
