Step 1

Cut loaf of bread into small pieces. This should be around 10 cups once cubed. Lay bread on a rim lined baking sheet and place in oven. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. While oven preheats dry bread, stir once and remove from oven when bread is slightly dry.

Step 2

While bread is in oven, make the custard by whisking together the egg, milk, cream. melted butter cinnamon, vanilla extract and sugar.

Step 3

Once bread is dried, place into a greased casserole dish. Pour custard mixture over bread. Stir gently to cover all pieces. Allow bread to soak for 15 minutes before placing in oven.

Step 4

Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 50-55 minutes or until the custard is set. The bread pudding will puff up and no longer be giggly in center. Set aside to cool. Pudding will sink as it cools which is completely normal.

Step 5

While bread pudding is cooling, melt butter on a sauce pan over medium heat. Add brown sugar and cinnamon to the butter and stir with a whisk until the sugar dissolves (about 5 minutes). Remove from heat and stir in bourbon.

Step 6

To serve, cut bread pudding into squares. Plate and pour cinnamon sauce over top. Serve immediately.
