3 large eggs, room temperature
1 1/4 cups 2% milk
1/2 cup sugar
3 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon salt
4 1/2 cups 4-1/2 day-old cubed brioche or egg bread
1 1/4 cups 1-1/4 raisins
BOURBON SAUCE:
1/4 cup butter, cubed
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup light corn syrup
3 tablespoons bourbon
Directions:
In a large bowl, whisk together first seven ingredients; stir in bread and raisins. Transfer to a greased 4-qt. slow cooker. Cook, covered, on low 3 hours. (To avoid scorching, rotate slow cooker insert one-half turn midway through cooking, lifting carefully with oven mitts.)
For sauce, place butter, sugar and corn syrup in a small saucepan; bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Cook and stir until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat; stir in bourbon. Serve warm sauce over warm bread pudding.
