We all know the parmigiana, the classic one.
Today, however, we are preparing another type of parmigiana, namely the bread parmigiana. Incredibly soft, creamy, and I assure you it will disappear in no time.
For my son’s party, the kids literally devoured it.
The bread parmigiana is essentially a savory pie, very easy to prepare, delicious, and above all… cheesy!

Preparation of Bread Parmigiana

Line a rectangular mold about 7 x 11 inches with parchment paper. Alternatively, you can slightly oil the baking dish.
Quickly dip the slices of bread in the eggs and milk mixture, placing them on the bottom of the baking dish, covering it completely.
Place the cooked ham on the bread, sliced or shredded scamorza cheese, grated parmigiano, and cover everything with the slices of bread quickly dipped in the egg and milk mixture.
Continue to make three layers, and the last layer should be covered with slices of bread.
Pour the remaining egg mixture and sprinkle the surface with breadcrumbs. Add some small pieces of butter.
Bake the bread parmigiana at 392°F for about twenty minutes until golden.
