Begin by cutting stale bread into approx. 1-inch cubes and placing them in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.

In a large mixing bowl, beat together the eggs until frothy, then whisk in milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.

Pour the egg mixture over the bread cubes in the baking dish, ensuring all pieces are well-coated. Let it rest for 15 minutes.

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake for 30-35 minutes until golden brown.

While baking, prepare the vanilla sauce by combining sugar, butter, and milk in a saucepan over medium heat.

Whisk continuously until thickened, about 6-8 minutes, and stir in vanilla extract.

Allow the Bread Pudding to cool for about 10 minutes before serving and drizzle with warm vanilla sauce.
