Step 4:Layered the bread buttered side up, in the greased baking tray.

Step 5:Sprinkle the bottom layer with half of the raisins. Layer again with bread slices. Lastly again sprinkle the remaining raisins on top and set aside.

Step 6:Now preheat your oven to 180° C/356° F for 15 minutes.

Step 7:In another skillet or a sauce pan, mix milk, sugar and cornstarch very well with a wired whisk.

Step 8:Keep the pan on a low heat and gently simmer this mixture, stirring often till the mixture thickens.

Step 9:Make sure no lumps are formed. So you have to stir continuously.

Step 10:Once the mixture is thickened and coats the back of a spoon, add vanilla extract, cinnamon powder and nutmeg powder.

Mix to combine the flavoring evenly in the custard sauce.

Step 11:Now pour this eggless custard over the bread layers.

Step 12:Dot with some butter on top.

Step 13: Sprinkle brown sugar evenly on the top layer.
