Ingredients

1 teaspoon butter, soft
4 slices whole wheat bread, make sure to use large slices (original says toast, but I used whole spelt soda bread)
2 eggs
150 ml whipping cream

Use the soft butter to grease a 15X15 cm casserole dish.
Cut the bread slices in half diagonally and arrange them in the prepared dish.
Whisk the eggs together with the milk and whipping cream in a bowl. Add the freshly grated nutmeg, hot paprika, salt and black pepper for seasoning.
Gently pour the seasoned egg mixture over the layered bread.
