Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
Grease a baking dish with butter.
Slice the sourdough bread into thick pieces and spread butter on each slice.
Arrange the bread slices in the baking dish, layering with raspberries.
In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, cream, caster sugar, limoncello, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the custard mixture evenly over the bread and raspberries in the baking dish.
Let the dish sit for 10 minutes to allow the bread to soak up the custard.
Place the dish in the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden and the custard is set.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
Use stale sourdough bread for better texture and absorption of the custard.
