Servings: persons

1-1/2 loaf Cinnamon Raisin Bread
Butter, For Greasing
8 whole Eggs
2 cups Whole Milk
1/2 cups Heavy Cream
1 cup Sugar
2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
2 Tablespoons Vanilla Extract
Topping
1 stick Cold Butter, Cut Into Pieces
1/2 cups Flour
1/2 cups Packed Brown Sugar
1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
1/4 teaspoons Salt
1/2 cups Raisins
Softened Butter, For Serving
Warm Maple Syrup, For Serving

1
Unwrap the loaves of bread, then overlap the slices in rows in a well-buttered baking dish.
2
Whisk together the eggs, milk, cream, sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon, then pour the mixture evenly over all the pieces of bread, soaking the bread as much as possible.
3
To make the topping, combine the butter, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl and cut it all together with a pastry cutter. Stir in the raisins.
4
Sprinkle the topping all over the casserole. Cover the pan with foil and refrigerate it for several hours or overnight.
5
When you're ready to bake the French toast, preheat the oven to 350u00b0F. Bake the French toast for 45 minutes to 1 hour for a softer texture, or longer for a firmer, crisper texture. Cover with foil for the first 30 minute of baking, then remove it for the remaining baking time.
6
Serve individual helpings with butter and warm syrup.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
