In a medium bowl, beat the eggs and sugar until light and creamy. Whisk in the milk and vanilla; strain the cooled cream into the egg mixture and whisk to combine.

Pour the egg mixture over the bread; let stand for about 15 minutes.

Bake the pudding for 40 to 50 minutes, until set and browned on top.
