Steps:

• Break the bread into small chunks in a large bowl.

• Stir in the vanilla and raisins.
• Pour into a greased lasagna pan or a 13x9" inch pan.

• Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly across the top of bread mixture.
• Bake in a preheated 350* oven for 1 hour.
• Let cool 20 to 30 minutes as pudding will set firmer as it cools.
