Ingredients:
8 cups cubed white bread
1 can (398 mL) sliced peaches, drained and chopped
4 eggs
3/4 cup (175 mL) granulated sugar
2 cups (500 mL) milk
1 cup (250 mL) heavy cream (35%)
1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla extract
1/2 tsp (2 mL) cinnamon
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350°F/180°C.
Add the bread cubes to a well-greased 9x9 baking dish. Dot the surface with the peaches, snuggling a few down into the bread cubes here and there.
To make the custard mixture, whisk the eggs with the sugar in a large mixing bowl until lightly frothy. Stir in the milk, cream, vanilla and cinnamon. Pour slowly over the bread cubes. Using the back of a spoon, press any bread cubes that are still dry down into the custard mixture.
Bake for 45 to 50 minutes until a knife inserted into the centre comes out clean. Serve warm, room temperature or chilled.
Notes:
If desired, dust with icing sugar for a pretty frosted look and serve with real whipped cream for maximum peaches and cream pleasure.
