This is my friend Metra's recipe that she so generously shared. It is the best bread pudding I have ever had! I love this recipe!

- Up to 6 cups fresh fruit (great with a variety) cut into bite sized pieces. Mix with bread cubes. shopping list
- 1 pt heavy cream shopping list
- 1 pt half and half or milk shopping list
- 9 eggs shopping list
- 1-2 tsp Ceylon cinnamon (can use regular also) shopping list
- ¼ cup sugar (or more if making as dessert) shopping list
How to make it
- Whisk together cream, half & half, eggs, cinnamon, and sugar and pour over bread and fruit.
- Cover with foil and refrigerate several hours or overnight.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Remove foil and sprinkle cinnamon and brown sugar on top and replace foil.
- Bake for 30 minutes or until pudding starts to rise.
- Remove foil and continue baking until puffy. Check for doneness like you would a cake with a toothpick.
