Ingredients

  • 6 cups cubed bread
  • 2 cups fresh or canned peaches, sliced
  • 6 eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar (optional topping)
  • 2 tablespoons butter (optional topping)
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional topping)

Instructions

  1. Grease a baking dish and spread cubed bread evenly.
  2. Scatter sliced peaches over the bread.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, cream, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  4. Pour the mixture over the bread and peaches, pressing lightly to soak.
  5. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
  6. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

Notes

  • Use nectarines or berries as a substitute for peaches.
  • Add cream cheese cubes for extra richness.
  • Top with nuts for added crunch.
  • Brioche or challah bread works best for texture.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • Freeze for up to 2 months and thaw before reheating.
