- beat eggs well then add milk sugar and vanilla ( in never use vanilla)
- stir until sugar has dissolved
- strain into a greased pie dish
- spread bread lightly with butter (or Jam)cut into squares or triangles arrange on top of custard mixture
- make sure bread is saturated with custard before baking even if you push bread into mixture
- if using plain bread you can sprinkle with sultanas
- sprinkle with nutmeg (again not neccesary)
- stand pie dish into baking tray of water about half way up dish bake in slow oven 160c until custard has set

I usually wing it but Rach's sounds pretty close. The only other thing I do is spread marmalade on each slice of bread - it gives it a really tangy aftertaste that I love - but isn't for everyone (interestingly I was watching an old episode of Pie in the Sky the other day and that is what they did too)
use croissants and berries!! mmmm
