Preparation

Begin by slicing the thick-cut bread if it isn't already sliced. You will need one slice for the French toast.

Make the Custard
In a mixing bowl, whisk together 1 large egg, 1 tablespoon of milk, 1 tablespoon of heavy cream, 0.5 teaspoons of vanilla extract, and 1 teaspoon of sugar until well combined.
Cooking
- 3
Soak the Bread
Place the slice of bread into the custard mixture, allowing it to soak for about 2-3 minutes on each side, ensuring it absorbs the custard evenly.

Cook the French Toast
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the soaked bread slice and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Caramelize the Top
Once the French toast is cooked, sprinkle 1 teaspoon of sugar evenly over the top. Using a kitchen torch, carefully caramelize the sugar until it melts and forms a golden crust. If you don't have a torch, you can place the slice under a broiler for a minute or two, watching closely to avoid burning.

Serve
Place the caramelized French toast on a plate. Optionally, top with fresh berries and drizzle with maple syrup if desired. Enjoy your delicious Creme Brulee French Toast!
