Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Egg Mixture

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

  2. 2

    Preheat the Pan

    Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and add the butter, allowing it to melt and coat the pan.

Cooking

    Dip the Brioche

    Take each slice of brioche bread and dip it into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well-coated.

  2. 4

    Cook the French Toast

    Place the dipped brioche slices onto the heated skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Serving

    Once cooked, transfer the French toast to a plate and serve warm.
