Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
In a large bowl, combine the cubed stale bread with melted butter. Toss it gently to coat the bread evenly.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
Pour the custard mixture over the bread cubes. If you’re adding raisins or chocolate chips, fold them in gently at this stage.
Allow the mixture to sit for about 15 minutes, giving the bread time to absorb the custard.
Pour the bread mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the pudding from the oven and let it cool for about 10-15 minutes before serving.

For Vanilla Sauce, combine heavy cream, sugar, vanilla extract, cornstarch, and butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
Cook while stirring continuously until the sauce thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
Remove from heat and let it cool slightly before serving.
