Directions:

  1. Line the bottom and sides of a 13 x 9-inch (33 x 23 cm) baking dish with wet parchment paper that has been wrung out. Set aside.
  2. Heat a frying pan over medium heat; add oil and onion, sauté until the onion is lightly browned, add bacon and sauté until the onions are golden brown, remove from heat.
  3. Tear 6 slices of bread into bites sized pieces and place in the bottom of the prepared pan. Top with cooked bacon and sprinkle with all of the cheese. Tear up the rest of the bread and top the bacon /cheese layer.
  4. Whisk eggs, add dry mustard, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, paprika and Tabasco; whisk to combine. Whisk in milk. Pour mixture over bread. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  5. The next day: Bake in a preheated 350°F (180°C) oven until puffed and golden brown, and a tester comes out clean from the centre of the pan, approx. 1-1 ¼ hours
