Ingredients

• 6 slices Thick sliced brioche or challah bread
• 3 pieces Large eggs
• 0.75 cups Whole milk
• 0.25 cups Heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Butter (for cooking)
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (for topping)
• 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (for topping, optional)
• 0 as desired Maple syrup (for serving, optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 2

Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter.

Step 3

Dip each slice of brioche or challah bread into the egg mixture, letting it soak for about 5 seconds per side. Make sure both sides are evenly coated but not oversaturated.

Step 4

Place the soaked bread onto the skillet or griddle and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat this process with the remaining bread slices, adding more butter to the pan as needed.

Step 5

Once all the French toast slices are cooked, dust them with the remaining teaspoon of ground cinnamon and powdered sugar (if using).

Step 6

Serve hot with a drizzle of maple syrup, if desired. Enjoy your Double Cinnamon French Toast!
