Instructions
Grease a 9x 13 inch baking dish with a little bit of melted butter. Arrange the torn bread pieces on the greased dish, spreading them well so that the bottom is fully covered. Sprinkle the raisins all over the bread.
Drizzle the melted butter all over the bread and raisins.
In a large bowl, stir together both milk, eggs, salt, cinnamon, brown sugar and vanilla until incorporated. Pour this mixture over the bread mixture in the baking dish, making sure to pour it all over the bread pieces. Gently press the mixture to compact it against the pan.
Preheat oven to 350 F while you let the mixture sit and soak for about 30 minutes.
Bake the pudding for about 40-50 minutes, or until the top is golden and the pudding springs back to the touch. Serve warm.
Notes
I used "tasty" loaf bread/ white sandwich bread, but you can also use white dinner rolls, croissants and any other white bread.
I cannot guarantee the texture if whole wheat bread is to be used in this recipe, as the absorption may differ.
Substitute any dried fruit for the raisins. If your dried fruit come in big pieces, chop them to small bits.
