Time 1h15m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

cooking spray
1 loaf day-old Italian bread
2 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
8 large eggs
2 cups milk
½ cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons white sugar
½ teaspoon fresh lemon zest
¼ teaspoon almond extract
⅛ teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease or spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Slice the bread into 16 slices using a sharp knife. Save the ends to use in another dish, or discard. Arrange the bread slices in the prepared baking pan. Tuck strawberry slices between and around the bread.
  • Whisk eggs, milk, cream, sugar, lemon zest, almond extract, and salt together until well combined.
  • Pour the egg mixture over the bread slices. Press down on the top of the bread to help the egg absorb; it's okay if a little is in the bottom of the pan. Let stand for 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Bake in the center of the preheated oven until the bread is firm when gently pressed and the top is crispy and golden, 45 to 55 minutes.
