02 - In a small bowl, vigorously whisk the egg, Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt until completely smooth.
03 - Arrange the bread slices on the baking sheet and use the back of a spoon to gently create a shallow well in the center of each slice, leaving a border intact.
04 - Evenly spoon or pour the custard mixture into the wells formed in the bread slices.
05 - Optionally scatter mixed berries and nuts over the custard-filled bread.
06 - Place the tray in the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes until the custard sets and the bread edges turn golden and crisp.
