Bread

Custard Mixture

Method

Preparation of Custard Mixture

  1. 1

    Mix the Custard

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and sugar until well combined and slightly frothy.

Cooking the French Toast

  1. 2

    Soak the Bread

    Dip each slice of brioche bread into the custard mixture, allowing it to soak for about 30 seconds on each side to absorb the flavors.

  2. 3

    Heat the Pan

    In a large skillet or griddle, melt the butter over medium heat until bubbly.

  3. 4

    Cook the Toast

    Place the soaked slices of bread onto the skillet. Cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Ensure both sides are cooked evenly.

Serving the Dish

  1. 5

    Plate the French Toast

    Once cooked, remove the French toast from the skillet and place on plates.

  2. 6

    Add Toppings

    Drizzle with maple syrup, sprinkle with powdered sugar, and add fresh berries on top. Serve warm.
