Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 8 slices slices of bread
  • 4 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 cups milk
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Butter one side of each slice of bread. Cut the bread into quarters.
Assembling the Casserole
  1. In a greased 9x13 inch baking dish, lay half of the quartered bread pieces buttered side up.
  2. Sprinkle half of the shredded cheddar cheese over the bread.
  3. Arrange the rest of the bread pieces over the cheese.
  4. Add the remaining cheese on top.
Bringing it Together
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  2. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bread and cheese layers.
  3. Let it sit for about 15 minutes so the bread absorbs the mixture.
Baking
  1. Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the top is golden and bubbly.
  2. Let the casserole cool slightly before slicing and serving.
Serving Suggestions
  1. Serve with a side salad or tomato soup for an ideal meal.
