Ingredients
Scale
- 12 slices of white bread, crusts removed
- 8 ounces of deli ham, thinly sliced
- 8 ounces of deli turkey, thinly sliced
- 8 ounces of Swiss cheese, sliced
- 6 large eggs
- 2 cups of milk
- 2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper
- 2 tablespoons of butter, melted
- Powdered sugar for dusting
- Raspberry jam for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with a bit of the melted butter.
- Lay out 6 slices of bread on the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form a single layer.
- Layer half of the ham, turkey, and Swiss cheese evenly over the bread layer.
- Place the remaining 6 slices of bread on top, followed by the remaining ham, turkey, and Swiss cheese.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper until well combined.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the layers in the baking dish, pressing gently to ensure the bread absorbs the liquid.
- Drizzle the remaining melted butter over the top.
- Cover the dish with foil and let it sit for at least 30 minutes or overnight in the refrigerator.
- Bake, covered, in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the egg mixture is set.
- Let the casserole cool slightly before dusting with powdered sugar if desired.
- Serve warm with a side of raspberry jam.
Notes
For better absorption, use day-old bread. Can be made vegetarian by replacing meat with mushrooms and spinach. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
