Instructions

Beat the mascarpone, ½ cup heavy cream, powdered sugar, and ½ teaspoon vanilla in a bowl until soft peaks form, about 3-5 minutes.

Arrange the bread slices in a casserole dish.

Dollop the whipped mascarpone evenly throughout the bread.

Add the sliced strawberries to the dish, distributing evenly.

Whisk together the eggs, milk, remaining ½ cup heavy cream, butter, remaining vanilla, cinnamon, and salt until completely smooth.

Remove the foil and bake for another 20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the custard has set.

Remove from the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes before dusting with powdered sugar.
