Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Baking Dish

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

  2. 2

    Layer the Ingredients

    Arrange 4 slices of French bread in the bottom of the greased baking dish. Layer with 4 slices of Canadian bacon or ham and 4 slices of Swiss cheese. Top with the remaining 4 slices of French bread.

  3. 3

    Mix the Egg Mixture

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and honey mustard dressing until well combined.

  4. 4

    Pour the Egg Mixture

    Pour the egg mixture evenly over the layered bread, bacon, and cheese. Press down gently to ensure the bread absorbs the mixture.

  5. 5

    Bake

    Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the egg is set.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Let the bake cool slightly before dusting with powdered sugar. Serve warm with your choice of jam on the side.
