Critical Success Points

  • Ensuring the bread is fully saturated with the egg‑milk mixture.
  • Sealing the dish tightly with parchment and foil for the first bake.
  • Baking the first 60 minutes covered to set the custard.
  • Uncovering and browning the top to achieve a golden crust.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle the hot oven and baking dish with oven mitts to avoid burns.
  • Be careful when removing foil and parchment; steam can cause scalds.
  • Use a sharp knife on a stable cutting board when cubing bread.
