How to Make Helens Swiss Torta
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Cut 1 pound of stale bread into 1-inch cubes.
- In a large bowl, soak the bread cubes in 2 cups of milk for 15-20 minutes, ensuring all pieces are well-saturated.
- Add the following ingredients to the soaked bread and milk mixture: 4 large eggs, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter. Gently mix until well combined.
- Generously butter a 9x13 inch glass baking pan.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading evenly.
- Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until the torta is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. It will puff up beautifully as it bakes!
- Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm, perhaps with a dusting of powdered sugar or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
