Preparation:

Place cubed bread into a large mixing bowl. Add milk, allow bread to soak up milk. Blend sugar into the eggs, then add vanilla and almond extract. Add the egg mixture to the bread, distribute the cubed butter throughout. Add the drained peaches and stir. Pour into a 10 x 13-inch glass baking dish. Bake at 325°s; F for 45 minutes to an hour.

*Plaisance said weighing the bread crumbs is more accurate and consistent. The 12 oz is approximately one whole loaf of French bread, and 1/4 of another loaf.
