Ingredients
Scale
- 1 loaf brioche bread
- 4 large eggs
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
- Butter (for greasing the pan)
- Powdered sugar (for serving, optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with butter.
- Cut the brioche bread into cubes and arrange them evenly in the baking dish.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
- Pour the egg mixture over the brioche cubes, pressing down gently to ensure all bread is soaked.
- Cover the dish with foil and let it sit for at least 30 minutes, or refrigerate overnight for best results.
- Bake covered for 30 minutes. Then remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, until the top is golden brown.
- Serve warm, dusted with powdered sugar if desired.
Notes
Letting the casserole sit overnight enhances the flavors. Use day-old brioche for best results.
