Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the milk, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Whisk until well combined.
Add the bread cubes and raisins (if using) to the bowl, and gently stir until all the bread is coated with the milk mixture. Allow it to sit for 10 minutes to let the bread absorb the liquid.
Transfer the bread mixture to the greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Bake for approximately 45-50 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the custard is set.
While the bread pudding is baking, prepare the whiskey sauce. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the sugar and stir until dissolved.
Slowly pour in the heavy cream while stirring continuously. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the whiskey and vanilla extract. Allow the sauce to cool slightly.
Once the bread pudding is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
Serve the bread pudding warm, drizzled generously with the whiskey sauce.
