How to Make One Of A Kind Bread Pudding

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
In a large bowl, combine the stale bread cubes with the milk, ensuring the bread is thoroughly soaked. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for a richer flavor (if using very hard bread).
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, and melted butter.
Gently fold the wet ingredients into the soaked bread, ensuring all the bread is coated.
Stir in the shredded coconut and raisins.
Pour the bread pudding mixture into the prepared baking dish.
Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until the pudding is set and lightly golden brown. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with moist crumbs attached.
Let the bread pudding cool slightly before serving. Dust with powdered sugar (optional). Enjoy!
