2. Melt and butter your dish with a pastry brush (you can use anything similar in size to 6x8 inch dish)
3. Mix all the ingredients except the brioche in a large bowl
4. Layer the brioche in the dish starting with the ends and making a pleated pattern with the top layers - be sure to distribute the egg mixture between each layer
5. Cover lightly in foil and bake in a preheated oven at 180c / 350f / GM 4 - 40 minutes covered the remove the foil for the final 10 minutes. This will need 50 minutes but could take up to an hour depending on your oven.
