Preparation

1. Grease a 1 liter tart pan with butter.
2. Cut the crusts off the bread, spread each slice with butter on one side, and cut it into triangles.
3. Place a layer of bread in the mold with the greased side up, add a layer of raisins, and sprinkle with a little cinnamon.
4. Repeat the layers of bread and raisins, sprinkling cinnamon until you end up with a layer of bread.
5. Gently heat the milk and cream in a saucepan over low heat until just before boiling, without letting it boil.
6. Crack the eggs into a bowl, add three-quarters of the sugar, and beat until pale.
7. Add the warm milk and cream mixture, stir well, and strain the mixture into a bowl.
8. Pour the mixture over the bread layers, sprinkle with nutmeg and the rest of the sugar, and let it rest for 30 minutes.
9. Preheat the oven to 180°C/Gas 4.
10. Place the mold in the oven and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until the cream sets and the top is golden.
