Preheat your oven to 180Β°C (350Β°F) and lightly grease a baking dish (approximately 8x8 inches or equivalent).
Slice the brioche bread into 1-inch thick slices. Butter one side of each slice with the unsalted butter, then cut them into triangles.
Layer the bread slices in the prepared baking dish, buttered side up, overlapping slightly. Sprinkle the fresh raspberries evenly between the layers.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
Pour the custard mixture evenly over the bread and raspberries in the dish, ensuring every piece of bread is soaked. Gently press the bread down with the back of a spoon to help it absorb the custard.
Let the mixture stand for 10 minutes to fully absorb the custard.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the pudding is golden brown and the custard is set but still slightly wobbly in the center.
Remove the pudding from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Dust the top with powdered sugar before serving for a decorative and sweet finish. Serve warm, optionally with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
