Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds 3/4-inch cubed stale bread
- 4 cups scalded milk
- 1/2 pound butter
- 1/2 pint brandy
- 8 eggs
- 3 cups sugar
- 3/4 tablespoons nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons vanilla extract
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Cut up bread while milk and butter are heating in a pot. Combine liquids, eggs, sugar, and spice. Add bread last by submerging it using your hands so that it gets thoroughly soaked. Transfer into a buttered 9 by 13-inch pan, pouring gently so that bread doesn't break up too much. Bake until an inserted skewer or knife comes out clean, about 40 minutes.

I used this recipe as a stepping off point, extemporizing with Parrot Bay Rum instead of Brandy. Added some toasted pecans and unsweetened coconut for a tropical interpretation. Very very good.

I tried this recipe for the first time Thanksgiving 2010. I have received repeated requests for it since, It's easy, delicious, and different. As stated by another poster "OMG" Couldn't have said it better.
