Ingredients
1 cup sugar
1 vanilla bean, split
12 ¼-inch-thick slices brioche
8 large peaches, each peeled, pitted and cut into 6 slices
1 quart strawberries, hulled
1 pint blueberries
1 cup raspberries
Preparation
- Step 1
Place the sugar and vanilla bean in a tightly sealed container and set aside for at least 24 hours. Remove the bean and save for making more vanilla sugar.
- Step 2
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Arrange the brioche slices in a 10 ½-by-14 ¾-by-2 ¼-inch baking dish in a single or slightly overlapping layer. Place the peaches in a large bowl and toss with ½ cup of vanilla sugar. Layer the peaches over the bread. Place the strawberries in the bowl, toss with ¼ cup of the sugar and layer them over the peaches. Place the blueberries in the bowl, toss with ¼ cup of the sugar and scatter them over the strawberries. Scatter the raspberries over the top.
- Step 3
Cover with aluminum foil and bake until the fruit is very soft but not mushy, about 45 minutes to 1 ½ hours, depending on the ripeness of the fruit. Serve warm or at room temperature.
