Dice the dried strawberries and cut the thick bread into cubes (cut each slice into a grid of nine or as desired). Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).

Add the strawberry condensed milk and whisk until well combined, then mix in the milk.

Place the bread cubes and diced dried strawberries into the pan, then pour the condensed milk and egg mixture over them. Let soak for 10 minutes.

Let cool after baking. When warm, the surface is crispy like bread; after chilling, it becomes chewy. Once cooled, it can be refrigerated for up to 5 days. Serve directly or reheat in the oven. Before serving, you can sprinkle with powdered sugar for decoration or drizzle with more strawberry condensed milk!
