CARAMEL BREAD PUDDING
As my son says, it is like eating French Toast for dessert. :) It is very much like French Toast with a lovely caramel sauce on it. We all like it warm best. Make sure you use a 2-quart dish. Trust me, it will boil over in your stove in a 1 1/2-quart one. Oops! And don't worry, it will fall a little bit as it cools.

Steps:
- Cover raisins with water and orange juice. Soak while preparing other ingredients, or cover and refrigerate up to 24 hours.
- In a saucepan, heat milk, half and half, and butter but do not allow to boil. Cool slightly.
- Combine brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Reserve 2 tablespoons of brown sugar mixture for sprinkling on top later.
- In a separate saucepan, add the remaining brown sugar mixture, vanilla, and eggs. Whisk until smooth.
- Pour heated milk mixture into sugar mixture. Add baking powder and whisk until smooth.
- Place 1/2 of bread cubes in a 2-quart casserole dish.
- Thoroughly drain raisins and discard soaking liquid. Spread 1/2 cup raisins over the bread.
- Top with rest of bread cubes. Sprinkle remaining raisins on top.
- Pour the milk mixture over the bread until the bread is saturated. Let stand for 5 minutes.
- Sprinkle reserved 2 tablespoons of sugar mixture over top.
- Place bread pudding dish in a larger pan. Carefully, add very hot water to larger pan to within 1/2 inch of tops of casserole dish. Bake at 350F degrees for 1 hour 10 minutes to 1 hour 20 minutes or until knife comes out clean when inserted 1 inch from rim.
- Serve warm or cold.
Tips:
- Use stale bread for a better texture. Fresh bread will absorb too much custard and become soggy.
- If you don't have a loaf pan, you can use a 9x13 inch baking dish. Just adjust the baking time accordingly.
- Be sure to whisk the eggs and milk together until they are well combined. This will help prevent the custard from curdling.
- For a richer flavor, use heavy cream instead of milk.
- If you like, you can add a teaspoon of vanilla extract or a pinch of nutmeg to the custard.
- Serve the bread pudding warm or cold. It's delicious either way!
