    We make this every Christmas and my husband hates the thought of bread pudding and he loves this one. He even request that I make it more often. Never had an issue or problem with it being too wet or mushy. Its always had the right texture and flavor.

    This recipe came out far too wet and mushy to be served to anyone but my dogs. .....unless, of course you like it that way. I don't. No one I'd serve it too likes mushy food either. I imagine thats what happens when the bread is left to sit overnight.
    Perhaps if the eggs were poured on and baked right away it would've turned out a little more custard-like.

    I was NOT impressed by this recipe, just dissappointed. It sounded so good.
    I'm glad I tried this recipe out before using it for a special occasion.

    On a more positive note....my dogs loved the leftovers!

    To answer Bankmom about the dish being eggy. 'Rumor' has it if you use only yolks with a ratio of 3 yolks to 1/1/2 c milk it should give you the taste you're looking for. Ref: Cooks Illustrated, Feb 2009.

    This is a really great dish for brunch or potluck style breakfast/brunch. I have had it once made by someone else and made it once myself. When my friend made it I liked it less for some reason. I recall thinking the bottom layer of the casserole was a little eggy for my liking. I made this myself a few weeks ago and followed the recipe as-is. The only small exception was that my grocery store did not have french bread so I made two Pillsbury french loaves and used those. The taste is fantastic, but again I felt like the bottom layer was too eggy after baking. Maybe I will just use less eggs next time. One thing I did in the middle of the night (I have a newborn so I was up anyway was flip the bread slices over to ensure they all spent a good amount of time in the batter. I really enjoyed this but just need to figure out the eggy part!

    I am the apple of my boyfriend's eye and the life of the party every single time I make this recipe. My mother loved it for Mother's Day, my girlfriends loved it for a birthday brunch, my co-workers were amazed by it at a recent potluck, and the boyfriend wants it every other week for breakfast. This is an absolute hit!! There is an excessive amount of the liquid mixture so I do not pour all of it over the bread. I pour slowly and make sure all bread is saturated then discard any left over mixture. The dish ends up really soggy after baking when I have used all of the liquid. I left one thing out.....YOU DON'T NEED THE SYRUP. IT'S BEYOD SWEET ENOUGH.

    I found this exact recipe in a magazine a few years ago and tried it. Well it is now our Chirstmas Morning breakfast. We love it. I do however cut back on the topping. This will be one of your favorites too.

    Incredibly easy to make - and absolutely delicious. I made it the night before, baked it in the morning and took it to work for a surprise breakfast! It was a big hit!
