Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Step 2
Butter both sides of each bread slice generously. Cut into quarters.
Step 3
Whisk eggs, milk, sugar, and vanilla in a large bowl until smooth.
Step 4
Arrange bread quarters in the baking dish, butter-side up.
Step 5
Pour custard mixture over bread. Let soak 5 minutes so bread absorbs liquid.
Step 6
Bake until custard sets but surface still jiggles slightly, ~35 minutes.
Step 7
Cool 5 minutes. Serve warm, with a spoon to catch the custardy center.
