Ingredients
8 Servings
- 450 g bread
- 30 g butter
- 5 g cinnamon
- 6 eggs
- 480 ml milk
- 1 g nutmeg
- 425 g pumpkin puree
- 1 g salt
- 100 g sugar
- 10 ml vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Step 2
In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
Step 3
Add the cubed bread to the mixture and gently stir to coat all pieces. Let it sit for about 10 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the liquid.
Step 4
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Drizzle the melted butter over the top.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 6
Allow the bake to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy with maple syrup or a dusting of powdered sugar if desired.
