Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 slices Brioche bread
- 3 large Eggs
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 0.25 cup Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.5 cup Maple syrup
- 0.25 cup Cream cheese
- 1 tablespoon Powdered sugar
- 1 cup Fresh berries (optional)
- 0.25 cup Chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Cut the brioche bread into bite-sized cubes and set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter.
Dip the bread cubes into the egg mixture, ensuring they are fully coated but not soggy.
Cook the bread cubes in the skillet in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown on all sides, about 2-3 minutes per side. Add more butter to the skillet as needed for subsequent batches. Set cooked cubes on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess butter.
In a small saucepan, combine the maple syrup, cream cheese, and powdered sugar. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is smooth and warm, about 3-5 minutes. This will serve as your fondue dip.
Transfer the French toast cubes to a serving platter and pour the warm fondue dip into a small bowl or fondue pot.
Serve immediately with the dip. Optionally, garnish with fresh berries or chocolate chips for extra flavor and texture.
