Why I Love This Recipe
Ingredients You'll Need
3 C Sugar
8 Eggs
½ Gal. Whole milk
½ Lbs. Unsalted Butter
3-4 Whole French baguettes
½ C Golden Raisins
½ C Raisins
2 T Pure vanilla extract
2 t Ground cinnamon
2 t Ground nutmeg
Directions
Melt the butter and whip into the eggs with the sugar. Mix in cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla and milk. Tear baguettes into two inch pieces. Mix by hand with wet ingredients. Depending on the freshness of your baguettes adjust milk amount. The “batter” should be fully moist and the bread will have absorbed all the wet ingredients. Pour into a well greased 2” hotel pan and Cover with foil. Bake @ 350 degrees for twenty minutes. Remove foil and bake for another ten minutes @ 425 degrees until browned. Reheat covered in a fresh pan with a little milk. Yield: (24) 4 ounce portions
