Tips:

- Use a good quality bread for the casserole. It will make a big difference in the final product. - Don't skimp on the butter! It adds flavor and richness to the casserole. - Be sure to soak the bread cubes in the egg mixture for at least 30 minutes. This will help them to absorb the flavor of the eggs and milk. - If you want a crispy crust on your casserole, sprinkle some brown sugar or cinnamon sugar on top before baking. - Serve the casserole warm with your favorite toppings, such as syrup, butter, or fruit.
