Brioche French Toast

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Egg Mixture

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

  2. 2

    Soak the Brioche

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

  3. 3

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the applewood smoked bacon until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Cook the French Toast

    In the same skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add soaked brioche slices and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Add more butter as needed.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the French toast warm, topped with whipped butter and drizzled with Wisconsin maple syrup. Serve with crispy bacon on the side.
