For best results, use slightly stale bread. This will help it absorb the custard better and prevent the bread pudding from becoming soggy. Feel free to customize the flavor by adding other spices like cinnamon, cardamom, or allspice. You can also substitute other dried fruits for the raisins, such as cranberries, chopped apricots, or dates. For a richer flavor, use a combination of milk and cream in the custard base. If you don't have time to soak the bread pudding mixture, you can skip this step, but the texture may be slightly less even.
