How to Make Souffle Juliette

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Trim crusts from 4 slices of French bread (about 1 inch thick).
  3. Butter both sides of the bread slices generously.
  4. Arrange the bread slices in a well-buttered 8x8 inch baking dish.
  5. Sprinkle 1 cup of grated Gruyère cheese (or your favorite cheese) evenly over the bread.
  6. In a medium bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1 cup whole milk, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of freshly ground black pepper until light and frothy.
  7. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the cheese and bread, ensuring all the bread is moistened.
  8. Let the bread pudding stand for at least 30 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the custard.
  9. Place the baking dish in a larger roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into the roasting pan to come halfway up the sides of the baking dish (this creates a water bath).
  10. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the soufflé is puffed and golden brown and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
  11. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
