Ingredients

8-10 cups white bread or brioche bread!
2 cup almond milk or any milk of choice
5 eggs
1 tbsp vanilla exact
1½ cup brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1½ cup chocolate chips *use 1 cup of blueberries if doing fruit

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350º. Chop up bread into squares. In a large bowl, mix eggs, vanilla, milk, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt together well.
Add the bread to the egg/milk mixture. Be sure the bread is nice and soaked in the mix be gentle so the bread squares stay in tact. Grease the casserole dish and pour the bread, egg mix into the casserole. Add in the chocolate chips or blueberries, gently push them into the crevices of the casserole.
Bake for about 45-50 minutes. The top will be browned and crispy, stick a toothpick in the middle and be sure it comes out clean to be sure. Let the bread pudding cool before slicing into it.

Notes

Use brioche bread for a more luxurious flavor and texture.

If using blueberries, use 1 cup of fresh blueberries or any other fresh fruit.

For a sweeter bread, use more brown sugar if desired!

Make this the day before. Just get it in the casserole dish, cover and refrigerate until ready.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.

If making into French Toast Muffins as seen on my Instagram, scoop the batter into muffin liners about 1/2 full. Cooking time will need to be shortened to about 25-30 minutes, let them rest before dusting with sugar or maple syrup.
