Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups (cubed) day-old bread (e.g., brioche or challah)
- 1.5 cups fresh raspberries
- 4 eggs
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon butter (for greasing the slow cooker)
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Grease the inside of a slow cooker generously with butter to prevent sticking.
Place the cubed bread in a large bowl and gently fold in the fresh raspberries, being careful not to crush them. Transfer the mixture to the greased slow cooker.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt until fully combined.
Pour the custard mixture evenly over the bread and raspberries in the slow cooker. Press down gently on the bread with a spatula to ensure everything gets soaked in the custard.
Cover the slow cooker with a lid and set it to low heat. Cook for approximately 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the custard is set, and the top has a slightly golden appearance.
Once cooked, turn off the slow cooker and let the bread pudding rest for 10-15 minutes before serving.
Serve warm, optionally dusted with powdered sugar. Pair with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for added indulgence.
