Pane Dorato, also known as Golden Fried Bread, is a timeless Italian recipe that is perfect as a snack or side dish for lunch and dinner. The simple yet delicious bread recipe is known for its crispy exterior and fluffy inside texture, which makes it a satisfying treat for anyone who loves bread. Although traditionally made with white bread, you can use any bread you have on hand to make Pane Dorato. This recipe is perfect for those times when you want to indulge yourself in a simple but satisfying snack that would leave your taste buds craving for more.

Instructions

1.	Cut the bread into bite-sized cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.
2.	In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk and eggs, and pour the mixture over the bread.
3.	Toss the bread to coat it completely with the egg mixture. Let the bread sit for 10-15 minutes to soak up the liquid.
4.	Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the bread cubes to the pan in a single layer.
5.	Cook the bread for 5-7 minutes, or until it is golden brown and crispy on the outside. Use a slotted spoon to turn the bread occasionally to ensure it cooks evenly.
6.	Once the bread is cooked, transfer it to a serving bowl and sprinkle it with salt and freshly grated gruyere cheese. Serve hot and enjoy!
