Method
 

Preparation
  1. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish generously, then spread the cubed brioche or challah bread evenly across the bottom.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Pour this mixture evenly over the bread cubes.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the peach slices with brown sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and cinnamon. Gently toss to coat, then distribute the peach mixture evenly over the soaked bread cubes.
  4. In a clean bowl, mix together the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Cut in the cold, cubed unsalted butter until the mixture forms a crumbly texture. Sprinkle generously over the peach layer.
  5. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight or for about 30 minutes at room temperature.
  6. Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Bake uncovered for 40-45 minutes, until golden brown and set in the center. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving with powdered sugar, maple syrup, or optionally whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
