- Coat the bottom of a 12 x 8- inch glass baking dish with nonstick cooking spray or brush with melted butter. Arrange the bread slices in a single layer in the pan. Pour the egg mixture over the bread. Turn the bread slices over to coat the other side. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
