Ingredients
5cupsmilk
10slicesof day-old breadcut into 1 inch cubes
3TablespoonsButtermelted
3/4cupbrown sugar
1cupgranulated sugar
1/2teaspoonsalt

Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Grease a 9" x 13" glass baking dish with butter or vegetable oil cooking spray.
In a large glass measuring cup or similar, soak the raisins in 1 cup hot tap water. This water will be discarded and is not part of the recipe. You want to let the raisins soak for 10-15 minutes or so while you prepare the rest of the dessert.
In a large saucepan or in the microwave, scald the milk until it forms a skin. Do not let it boil.
Place cubed bread in a large bowl, add melted butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and salt.
Pour the hot milk mixture over the bread and let it stand for 5 minutes.
Mix the bread and milk together well.
Beat the eggs in a separate bowl until fluffy using a whisk.
Drain the water from the raisins and discard.
Fold in the raisins and eggs to the bread mixture.
Transfer the mixture to your greased baking dish.
Bake at 350 degrees until browned on top and just starting to pull away from the sides of the baking dish.
