Xmas got here too quickly, so I didn't have any French bread or raisins, but it still turned out excellent with honey wheat and a little vanilla whipped cream on top. My guests (my S.O.'s parents and grandparents, all Jewish/Ukrainian immigrants) loved the dessert. I generally love bread pudding anyway, and this one is no exception. Other recipes may suggest a sweet topping (strusel or such), but the sweetness of this by itself is perfect IMHO without being too sweet. I wasn't sure what ramekins were, so I just divided the mixture into two casserole dishes. One might have been enough, but I wanted to ensure this cooked evenly all the way though. Thanks, Vivi!
