Ingredients
12 cups Irish soda bread, cut into 1-inch cubes
4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
Half and half
1 cup Granulated sugar
3 Large eggs
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Kosher salt
Directions
Preheat your oven to 350°F and lightly butter a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Arrange the soda bread cubes evenly in the prepared baking dish.
Drizzle the melted butter over the bread cubes and toss gently to coat.
In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar and eggs until well combined and pale, about 2–3 minutes.
Add the half and half, vanilla extract, and a pinch of kosher salt to the egg mixture and whisk until smooth.
Pour the custard mixture slowly and evenly over the bread cubes, ensuring all pieces are moistened. Let sit for 10–15 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the liquid.
Transfer the baking dish to the oven and bake for 35–40 minutes, until the top is golden brown and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs. The internal temperature should reach 160°F.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5–10 minutes before serving warm.
