Tips
- Day-old or slightly stale bread works best as it absorbs the custard mixture better.
- Combine different types of bread, like brioche, challah, or French bread, for more texture and flavour.
- Cut the bread into uniform slices to ensure even soaking and baking.
- Let the bread soak in the custard mixture for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavours fully.
- Bake the Bread Pudding in a water bath to prevent it from drying and ensure it is even cooked.
- The Bread Pudding is done when the edges are set, and the centre is slightly jiggly but not liquid.
- Allow the Bread Pudding to cool for a few minutes before serving to set the custard and make slicing easier.
