Instructions
- To dry bread cubes, bake them in a 300° oven about 15 minutes. Or, cut toasted bread slices into 1-inch cubes.
- In a mixing bowl beat together eggs, milk, sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla. Place dry bread cubes in an 8x1 1/2-inch round baking dish. Sprinkle raisins or dried fruit over bread. Pour egg mixture over all. Bake in a 325° oven for 35 to 40 minutes or till a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool slightly. Serve warm with Whiskey Sauce, if desired.
