Ingredients

• 8 pieces Bread slices
• 2 cups Cheddar cheese (shredded)
• 1 cup Mozzarella cheese (shredded)
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter (softened)
• 3 large Eggs
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese (grated)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish with a small amount of butter or cooking spray.

Step 2

Spread softened butter evenly on one side of each of the bread slices. Cut each slice into quarters (triangles or squares work best).

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and Dijon mustard until smooth. Set aside.

Step 4

Lay half of the bread pieces, buttered side down, on the bottom of the greased pie dish to create an even layer.

Step 5

Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese and 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the bread layer.

Step 6

Top the cheese layer with the remaining bread pieces, buttered side up, arranging them to cover most of the cheese layer.

Step 7

Pour the egg and milk mixture evenly over the pie, making sure the bread soaks up the liquid for a custard-like texture.

Step 8

Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese on top.

Step 9

Place the pie dish on a baking sheet to catch any potential drips, then bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.

Step 10

Remove the dish from the oven and let the pie cool for 5 minutes. Slice and serve warm for a comforting, cheesy meal.
