- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bread, gently pressing the bread down so it absorbs the liquid.

- Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Description

The bread soaks up the egg and milk mixture, creating a comforting dish similar to a savory bread pudding.
Simple yet filling, it’s a warm and satisfying way to start your day.
Tips
- Slightly stale bread works best because it absorbs the liquid more effectively.
- You can optionally add salt, pepper, or herbs for extra flavor.
- Serve with fresh fruit or yogurt for a balanced breakfast.
- The recipe can be doubled easily for family-sized portions.
Corrections (Common Mistakes to Avoid)
- Using too much milk can make the dish soggy.
- Overbaking may cause the eggs to become dry or rubbery.
- Make sure all bread pieces are soaked for even cooking.
