Ingredients 

  • ¼ whole sourdough bread cut into cubes
  • ¼ cup butter
  • ½ cup coconut sugar + 1 Tbsp
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup full-fat milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla bean or paste
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

  • Heat the oven to 200 C (392°F).
  • Grease the casserole dish with some butter and leave it aside.
  • In a small pot, melt the butter over low heat.
  • Add the sugar and mix until you get a creamy and uniform composition.
  • Pour the butter and sugar mixture into the saucepan, so that it covers the bottom of the casserole in an even layer.
  • Then, put the sliced bread cubes in one layer.
  • In a bowl, add eggs, milk, vanilla and cinnamon. Mix the composition well and pour over the layer of bread so that it covers and soaks the whole bread in the composition.
  • Sprinkle over a spoonful of coconut sugar.
  • Put the casserole in the oven and let it bake for 25-30 minutes, or until it browns on the edges.
  • Serve with cream cheese or ice cream.
