Ingredients
- 4 slices of brioche bread
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk (whole or heavy cream for extra richness)
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- A pinch of salt
- 2 tablespoons butter (for frying)
For Serving:

Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Batter
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
Step 2: Dip the Brioche
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter.
- Dip each slice of brioche bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated but not overly soaked.
Step 3: Cook the French Toast
- Place the dipped bread slices onto the heated skillet.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and slightly crispy.
- Repeat with the remaining slices, adding more butter if needed.
Step 4: Serve
- Transfer the French toast to a plate and dust with powdered sugar.
- Drizzle with maple syrup and top with fresh berries and whipped cream.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
Tips for Perfect Brioche French Toast
- Use Stale Bread: Slightly stale brioche absorbs the batter better and prevents sogginess.
- Don’t Over-Soak: Too much liquid can make the toast fall apart—just a quick dip is enough.
- Cook on Medium Heat: This ensures a golden crust without burning the bread.
- Add a Flavor Boost: Try adding a splash of orange zest or a hint of nutmeg to the batter for extra depth.
