Tips:

  • Use a good quality bread for the casserole. A sturdy bread like challah or French bread will hold up well to the custard and not get soggy.
  • Don't overmix the custard. Overmixing can make the custard tough.
  • Use a non-stick baking dish to prevent the casserole from sticking.
  • If you don't have a baking dish, you can use a 9x13 inch glass baking pan.
  • Let the casserole rest for 10-15 minutes before serving. This will help the custard to set.
  • Serve the casserole with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, whipped cream, or fresh fruit.
