Ingredients
- 4 slices sliced brioche bread
- 4 tablespoons Nutella
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 cups cornflakes cereal
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup (optional, for serving)
Directions
Step 1
Spread 2 tablespoons of Nutella evenly over 2 slices of brioche bread. Place the remaining two slices of bread on top to form sandwiches.
Step 2
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
Step 3
Place the cornflakes in a zip-top bag and crush them into small pieces using your hands or a rolling pin. Transfer the crushed cornflakes to another shallow dish.
Step 4
Dip each Nutella-filled sandwich into the egg mixture, making sure to coat both sides thoroughly. Let any excess liquid drip off.
Step 5
Press the dipped sandwiches into the crushed cornflakes, ensuring an even coating on all sides for a crispy texture.
Step 6
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt the unsalted butter.
Step 7
Cook the coated sandwiches in the skillet for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the exterior is golden brown and crispy and the interior is warmed through.
Step 8
Remove the Nutella Crunch French Toast from the skillet and let it rest for 1 minute.
Step 9
Dust with powdered sugar if desired and serve immediately with maple syrup on the side for dipping or drizzling.
