The sweet fragrance of French Toast in the morning is one of life’s greatest pleasures! Make this recipe your own by using any sweet bread like challah, babka, panettone or stollen.
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 loaf brioche (or other sweet bread), cut into 1-inch slices
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
Preparation
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cream, sugar, vanilla extract and cinnamon. Pour the egg mixture over the bread slices, cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Heat a large nonstick pan with 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Once melted, gently lay soaked bread slices into pan and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and toasty. Repeat in batches until all bread has been cooked.
Serve with fresh fruit or maple syrup and powdered sugar.
