Brioche French Toast

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Egg Mixture

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

  2. 2

    Soak the Brioche

    Dip each slice of brioche bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated. Let the excess mixture drip off.

  3. 3

    Cook the French Toast

    In a skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the soaked brioche slices to the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining butter and slices.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Caramelized Apples

    While the French toast is cooking, peel, core, and slice the apples. In a separate pan, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat, then add the sliced apples and brown sugar. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender and caramelized.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the French toast warm, topped with the caramelized apples and a drizzle of maple syrup.
