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)
Directions
Step 1
In a shallow dish or mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and granulated sugar until well combined.
Step 2
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.
Step 3
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.
Step 4
Place the soaked bread slice onto the heated skillet. Repeat the process for other slices, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.
Step 5
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.
Step 6
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.
Step 7
Serve warm and enjoy the best-tasting French toast you've ever had!
