bottom of 13x9" pan in a single layer. Layer remaining bread
overlapping at an angle, over bottom layer.

mixtur over bread as shown. Cover pan; refrigerate at least 3 hours
or overnight.

Remove casserole from oven. Evenly pour syrup over slices. Bake an additional 5 minutes or until bubbling. let stand 10 minutes before cutting.
Sometimes I add more milk and eggs....it makes the dish more "custard-like"
4. This is the simplest way to get Rave Reviews....be prepared to give the recipe out, because they will ask! I use skim milk...you could even leave off the "Brulee"
topping for a "slimmer" version.
