Bread Base

Method

Preparation of Bread Base

  1. 1

    Prepare Egg Mixture

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.

  2. 2

    Soak Bread Slices

    Dip each slice of thick-cut bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated. Allow the slices to soak for 2-3 minutes to absorb the mixture.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Preheat and Grease Pan

    Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease it with butter or oil.

  2. 4

    Cook French Toast

    Place the soaked bread slices onto the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Topping & Serving

  1. 5

    Prepare Topping

    In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until just simmering. Remove from heat and whisk in granulated sugar until dissolved.

  2. 6

    Add Powdered Sugar

    Sift in the powdered sugar and whisk until smooth to create a crème brûlée-style topping.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Drizzle the warm topping over the cooked French toast. If desired, garnish with fresh berries. Serve immediately.
