Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 slices Thick-cut brioche bread
- 4 pieces Large eggs
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Butter (for cooking)
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (for garnish)
- optional Maple syrup (for serving)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth and well combined.
Preheat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter, allowing it to melt and coat the surface evenly.
Dip each slice of brioche bread into the egg mixture, making sure both sides are evenly coated but not overly saturated to prevent sogginess.
Place the dipped bread slices onto the hot skillet, cooking 2–3 slices at a time depending on the size of your skillet. Cook for 2–3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
Remove the cooked slices and set them aside on a plate. Add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the skillet, and repeat the process with the remaining bread slices.
Once all slices are cooked, arrange them on serving plates. Dust generously with powdered sugar and drizzle with maple syrup if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy your Snickerdoodle French Toast!
