Now, let’s get cooking:
1. Preheat that oven to 350°F, honey. Grease a 9×13 baking dish like it’s nobody’s business.
1. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, cream, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Make it smooth as silk!
1. Layer half the bread cubes in your prepared dish, top with half the peaches, then repeat. Pour that heavenly custard mixture all over it. Let it soak for about 30 minutes (perfect time to catch up on your social media! 😘).
1. Drizzle with melted butter and bake for 45-50 minutes until golden brown and set in the middle.
For that amazing bourbon sauce:
1. Melt butter in a saucepan
2. Add sugar and bourbon
3. Simmer until sugar dissolves
4. Stir in cream and cook until slightly thickened
Sweet heavens, y’all! The smell of this baking will have your neighbors “dropping by” to say hello!
Pro tip from your girl: Serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and that warm bourbon sauce drizzled on top. If that doesn’t make your eyes roll back in pure bliss, I don’t know what will!
