Standard bread puddings rely on custard ratios, but this rustic iteration functions more like a dense cake built on steeped starches. Stale dense bread requires sufficient hydration time to break down fully before baking.
Greasing the baking vessel thoroughly with butter and dusting it with breadcrumbs prevents the high-sugar batter from sticking during extraction. Cool the cake entirely before attempting to invert it from the pan.
