Indulge in the ultimate breakfast luxury with this irresistible French Toast Stack, a decadent twist on a classic favorite. Made with thick-sliced brioche or challah for a rich, buttery base, each slice is soaked in a luscious blend of eggs, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon, then cooked to golden perfection. Perfectly layered, this stack is crowned with a generous drizzle of maple syrup, a scattering of fresh berries, and a dusting of powdered sugar for a stunning presentation. Add an optional dollop of whipped cream for an extra touch of decadence. Ready in just 25 minutes, this dish is ideal for impressing at brunch or treating yourself to a cozy weekend breakfast.
In a shallow mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until fully combined.
Preheat a large, nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter to melt.
Dip one slice of bread into the egg mixture, allowing each side to soak for 5-10 seconds. Shake off any excess liquid.
Place the soaked bread slice onto the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining slices, adding the second tablespoon of butter as needed.
To assemble the French Toast Stack, layer two slices of cooked French toast on each plate.
Drizzle maple syrup generously over the stack, followed by a handful of fresh berries.
Sprinkle powdered sugar over the top using a fine-mesh sieve for an elegant finish.
Optionally, add a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious French Toast Stack!
