Coconut oil offers a unique flavor.

Cut the leftover bread into small cubes and place them into a prepared greased baking dish.

Soak the raisins in hot water to soften them.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a mixing bowl, combine the eggs and milk, whisking together.

Add the granulated sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg to the egg and milk mixture, whisking until combined.

Add the soaked raisins to the bread in the baking dish, distributing them evenly.

Pour the custard mixture over the bread, ensuring all pieces are soaked.

Use a spatula to press down the bread to ensure it's fully immersed in the custard.

Let the mixture sit for 30 minutes to absorb the custard.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes until fluffy and set.
