Equipment

  • Slow Cooker

Ingredients

  • 1 pound Italian loaf slightly stale
  • 4 eggs lightly beaten
  • 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Cut bread into 1 - 2 inch cubes. (If bread is fresh, then first toast cut pieces for 3-4 minutes in a single layer on a baking sheet at 400 ℉.)
  • Spray inside surface of slow cooker with nonstick spray.
  • Place bread in slow cooker and if using a smaller than 5-quart slow cooker, squish it down to make sure it all fits.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine remaining ingredients and mix well.
  • Pour mixture evenly over the bread, making sure it is all coated.
  • Cover and cook on high for 2-3 hours or low for 5-6 hours until eggs are fully cooked.
  • Serve with homemade salted caramel sauce or your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • Store in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze individual servings for up to 3 months. Defrost and reheat in the microwave.
  • A 6-quart oval slow cooker will work best for this recipe.
  • For best results, use bread that is slightly dried out and stale.
