2. Cut the French bread into 1-inch squares and place them in a large bowl.
3. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt and allspice.
4. Pour the egg mixture into the bowl with the bread, mix, and let the bread soak in the mixture for 15 minutes.
5. Spoon the soaked bread into the baking dish and bake for 50-60 minutes or until the center is set and the top in golden brown.
6. While the bread pudding is baking, make the sauce: whisk together the heavy cream, sugar and flour in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until the sugar dissolves.
