1
Whisk the Ingredients
In a medium mixing bowl, crack the 2 large eggs and whisk them until well beaten. Add 1 cup of milk, 1 tsp of vanilla extract, 0.5 tsp of cinnamon, and 0.25 tsp of salt. Continue whisking until all ingredients are well combined and the mixture is smooth.

2
Heat the Pan
Place a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Allow it to heat for a few minutes until hot.
3
Dip the Brioche
Take the 4 slices of brioche bread and dip each slice into the egg batter, ensuring both sides are well coated. Allow any excess batter to drip off.
4
Grill the Bread
Melt 2 tbs of butter in the heated skillet. Once melted and bubbling, place the coated brioche slices onto the skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.

5
Plate the French Toast
Once cooked, transfer the French toast to a serving plate. Dust the top with 2 tbs of powdered sugar, and drizzle maple syrup over the top to taste.
