Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 slices Thick-sliced brioche bread
- 3 pieces Large eggs
- 0.75 cups Whole milk
- 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.25 cups Maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (for garnish, optional)
- 0.5 cups Fresh berries (optional)
Instructions
In a shallow dish or mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and granulated sugar until well combined.
Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter and let it melt, evenly coating the cooking surface.
Take one slice of brioche bread and dip it into the egg mixture, allowing each side to soak for about 5-7 seconds. Be careful not to oversoak, as the bread may fall apart.
Place the soaked bread slice onto the heated skillet. Repeat the process for other slices, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.
Cook each slice for 2-3 minutes on one side, or until golden brown. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side. Add more butter to the pan as needed for subsequent batches.
Once all slices are cooked, transfer them to a serving plate. Drizzle with maple syrup, garnish with powdered sugar, and top with fresh berries if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy the best-tasting French toast you've ever had!
