We found this tasty recipe during our travels -- the stained handwritten card came from a small B&B in Northern California. Unfortunately, that B&B doesn't exist any longer, but the recipe survives! (It's hardly dietetic, but great for a special occasion splurge.)
Ingredients:
Preheat oven to 350. Brush both sides of bread with melted butter. Arrange bread in a 9" x 12" baking pan. Beat the eggs and yolks together then add the remaining ingredients (except powdered sugar and fresh berries). Pour over the bread. Place the custard dish in a larger pan and pour hot water into the larger pan to come about halfway up the sides of the pan.
Bake for 35-40 minutes or until lightly browned and puffy. Let rest 10-15 minutes before serving. Dust with powdered sugar and sprinkle with fresh berries.
