Welcome to the channel and introduction to the recipe.

Using stale bread, which absorbs moisture better, shred it into small pieces.

In a bowl, add coconut milk and some water (not the entire glass).

Add Antigua Cavalier rum to the mixture.

Add a dash of almond essence (instead of vanilla essence).

Add cinnamon and nutmeg to the mixture.

Stir the mixture well to combine all ingredients.

Add sugar to sweeten the mixture and mix until dissolved.

Pour the mixture over the shredded bread to soak it up.

Wash hands before mixing the bread and liquid together.

Mix the bread and liquid with hands to ensure all bread is soaked.

Add raisins to the soaked bread mixture (optional).

Transfer the mixture into a greased baking dish and pat it down to even it out.

Add a few cherries on top for decoration.

Let the mixture sit for 15 minutes before baking.

Bake in the oven for about 25 minutes.

Remove the bread pudding from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before cutting.

Slice the bread pudding and note that it is still hot and not completely set.
