Decadent Bread

Directions

1. 1
   NOTE: Any bread with good texture may be used, but Italian is our favorite for this.
2. 2
   Place in a greased individual casserole, one slice of bread, sliced one inch thick.
3. 3
   Beat the remaining ingredients together and pour over the bread.
4. 4
   Turn and pour more - use ALL the mixture for one serving.
5. 5
   The liquid will pool up in the dish, but will be soaked up by the bread as it cooks.
6. 6
   If desired, place on top of the bread a small amount of fruit, jam or preserves.
7. 7
   Fresh or frozen blueberries or raspberries are also very good.
8. 8
   Bake for 40 minutes in a 350 degree oven.
9. 9
   The bread will swell and puff to almost double in size and height and will brown slightly.
10. 10
    The time is precise and this is to be served immediately.
