Ingredients:

4 large eggs
1 cup milk
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup granulated sugar
3 tbsp melted butter
1 tsp ground allspice
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 loaf stale French bread, cubed
2-3 apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
Powdered sugar for garnish (optional)
Optional toppings: chocolate drizzle, caramel sauce, or ice cream

Instructions:

Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 11x8 inch baking dish.

Prepare Custard Mixture:

In a large bowl, whisk together 4 eggs until they are well scrambled.
Add 1 cup milk, 1 cup heavy cream, and 1 cup granulated sugar to the eggs. Whisk until combined.
Add 3 tablespoons of melted butter, 1 teaspoon ground allspice, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix well until the spices are fully incorporated and no lumps remain.

Combine with Bread and Apples:

Add the cubed stale French bread to the custard mixture.
Add the sliced apples. Mix everything with a rubber spatula until the bread and apples are well coated.
Let the mixture rest at room temperature for about an hour to allow the bread to soak up the liquids.

Bake:

Pour the mixture into your prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. The pudding should be slightly jiggly in the center.

Garnish and Serve:

Once out of the oven, you can garnish the bread pudding with powdered sugar, a drizzle of caramel sauce, or even some chocolate.
For an extra treat, serve with a scoop of ice cream.
