Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with the unsalted butter.
Cut the day-old bread into 1-inch cubes and spread them evenly in the greased baking dish. If using raisins, sprinkle them across the bread cubes.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole milk, heavy cream, eggs, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Pour the custard mixture evenly over the bread cubes, ensuring all pieces are soaked. Gently press the bread down with a spatula to help it absorb the custard.
Let the mixture sit for 10-15 minutes to allow the bread to fully soak in the custard.
Bake the bread pudding in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set but slightly jiggly.
Remove the bread pudding from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm, with a drizzle of caramel sauce, vanilla sauce, or a scoop of ice cream, if desired.
