Method
Step 1
Grease 3½ quart (3½L) oval slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray.
Step 2
In a small mixing bowl, combine brown sugar and ground cinnamon. Stir well, reserving 1 teaspoon of the mixture, and set aside.
Step 3
Cut bread slices in half diagonally. Arrange bread slices in a single layer in the bottom of the slow cooker(keep as flat as possible). Evenly sprinkle one tablespoon of the cinnamon mixture. Repeat layering with remaining bread and cinnamon mixture, keeping layers as flat as possible.
Step 4
Combine whipping cream, half-and-half, vanilla, and salt in a large saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring until the mixture comes to a boil. Reduce heat to low.
Step 5
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine egg yolks and granulated sugar. Whisk a while adding 1/4 cup of hot cream mixture. Add warmed cream mixture to the saucepan and increase heat to medium-high. Cook, stirring until the mixture thickens slightly (about 5 minutes). Do not boil.
Step 6
Remove from the heat and stir in ground nutmeg. Pour mixture over bread and press bread down lightly. Sprinkle reserved 1 tablespoon of cinnamon mixture on top.
Step 7
Cover slow cooker and cook on low-heat setting for 3-4 hours, or until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean. Turn off the slow cooker and uncover. Set aside and let pudding rest 20 minutes before spooning into bowls. Serve with maple syrup and fresh berries.
