For an extra layer of flavor, consider toasting the bread cubes lightly before adding them to the baking dish. If you don't have apple syrup, maple syrup or even honey will work beautifully. Feel free to experiment with other dried fruits, such as raisins or cranberries. A dusting of powdered sugar or a drizzle of warm cream elevates the presentation.

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter, apple syrup, raw sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom, and salt. Stir in the half-and-half and milk until well combined. (5 minutes)
02
Step
5 mins
Place the cubed French bread and currants into a generously buttered large baking dish (9x13 inch). Pour the egg mixture over the bread, ensuring that all the bread is evenly coated. Gently press down to help the bread absorb the liquid. (5 minutes)
03
Step
30 mins
Cover the baking dish tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, to allow the bread to fully soak up the custard. (30+ minutes)
04
Step
5 mins
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Uncover the baking dish. (5 minutes)
05
Step
