Glad you liked it!

PaigeBakes · Answer

It was delicious, Merrill.  And, I'm in total agreement with you that the crisp top works.  I'll be putting this in the regular rotation.

Merrill S. · Answer

Hope it turned out okay! This has slightly less custard than some stratas -- which is why the resting time is really important so it can really soak onto the bread. I like the top a little crisp, so that's why I do it this way!

Thank you!  I ended up saving it for the next day so it was chilled overnight.  I measured everything, but I didn't seem to have enough custard to filling.  It looks dry.  I'm sure it will be delicious!  In the oven now...

Merrill S. · Answer

It really should chill for at least a couple of hours before you bake it -- otherwise the custard won't soak completely into the bread, and you'll have an uneven texture.
