Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

Step 2

Spread butter on bread slices and place 3 slices on the bottom of the baking dish. Cover with 1/2 of the cheese, and then repeat layer. In a small bowl beat together eggs, milk and salt and pour over bread layers. Refrigerate, and allow to stand until the liquid has been absorbed, several hours or overnight.

Step 3

Cover and bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove cover and continue baking for 35 minutes more, or until brown and fluffy.
