Ingredients

  • 4 thick slices day-old brioche
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter

Method

  1. Whisk the eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon in a shallow dish until smooth.
  2. Soak each brioche slice for about 20 seconds per side so it absorbs the custard without falling apart.
  3. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat until foaming.
  4. Cook the soaked slices for 2 to 3 minutes per side until deeply golden and set in the center.
  5. Serve warm dusted with sugar or drizzled with maple syrup.
