Put that slow cooker/crock-pot to use making dessert!

4 cups bread cubes (about 7 slices day-old bread), preferably multi grain
5 eggs beaten
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp lemon flavoring
3/4 cup brown sugar
3 1/2 cups milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup golden seedless raisins (or regular raisins)
1 tablespoon butter melted

 

In a large mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients together until the bread is wet. 

 

Spray the inside of the cooker with nonstick cooking spray.  Transfer the mixture to the cooker.  Place lid on cooker and cook on high 4 to 5 hours.  About 30 minutes before the end of the cooking time, remove lid to help the juices cook down.
