Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 Fahrenheit. Cube brioche bread and spread out onto baking sheet, place in oven for 15 minutes to dry out the bread. (Alternatively, cube the bread and leave it out on the tray overnight to become stale.)

Step 2

Lightly grease an 8" round cake pan or baking dish and set aside.

Step 3

In a large bowl whisk together eggs, cream, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well mixed.

Step 4

Add cubed brioche bread and toss with a spatula or spoon to coat each piece.

Step 5

Pour into prepared pan and tightly cover with foil.

Step 6

Place trivet in bottom of Instant Pot. (If you don't have a trivet, ball up some foil and place it in the bottom.) Cover with 1 cup water.

Step 7

Put foil covered pan into the Instant Pot. Place lid on pot and ensure it is well-sealed and the valve is closed.

Step 8

Set Instant Pot to cook with high pressure for 30 minutes.

Step 9

When the Instant Pot is finished cooking, carefully open the valve to release the steam. Remove the pan using two forks and peel back the foil.

Step 10

Serve as is or broil in the oven for 5 minutes until a crust forms. If desired, top with powdered sugar, maple syrup, and/or fresh berries.

Step 11

Any leftovers can be stored in the fridge for two days.
