Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Batter

    In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, bourbon, brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until well combined.

  2. 2

    Soak the Bread

    Dip each slice of brioche bread into the batter, allowing it to soak for a few seconds on each side. Ensure the bread is well-coated but not falling apart.

  3. 3

    Cook the French Toast

    In a large skillet or griddle, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the soaked brioche slices and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

  4. 4

    Whip the Cream

    In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with the powdered sugar until soft peaks form.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the French toast warm, topped with fresh berries, a dollop of vanilla whipped cream, and a drizzle of maple syrup.
