I have made this recipe several times over the past couple of weeks. I have found that hard French bread works the best for this recipe. Like other reviewers I only use 3 eggs and I add 1\2 teaspoon of nutmeg. I mix up all the ingredients and put the bread in the bowl so that it absorbs all of the liquid. Once absorbed I pour into the baking dish and bake for an hour. I have tried this recipe using regular slice bread and I found that 6 slices is not enough, it is better to use as much bread as possible to soak up the mixture or you will have an egg/custard type outcome. I also made this recipe using sour dough and it still came out great, even tough I went overboard with the amount of bread used. Overall, my family LOVES IT!

Everyone loves this and is amazed at how easy it is to make. I do use French Vanilla instead regular Vanilla pudding

I have been using this exact same recipe since High School some 20 years ago. RAVE reviews each and every time. In addition to making bars, I also make it as a cake using 9 inch pans.
