Ingredients
Yield: 8 servings
- 4 large eggs
- 3/4 cup whole milk
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 8 slices day-old brioche or Texas toast (about ¾–1″ thick)
- equal parts butter and neutral oil, for cooking
Method
Make the custard. In a shallow dish, whisk together eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt until smooth.
Dip the bread. Quickly dip each slice of brioche or Texas toast in the custard, coating both sides. For thicker slices, let them soak slightly longer until moistened through but not soggy.
Leave Warm a skillet over a medium burner and melt a knob of butter. Leave the bread for 2–3 minutes per side, until the edges turn golden brown. Lower heat if browning too quickly.
Keep warm. Move cooked slices to a baking sheet in a 200°F oven while you finish the batch.
Plate Enjoy warm with maple syrup, powdered sugar, fresh fruit, or any of your favorite toppings. Enjoy!!
