Ingredients

  • 4 slices of brioche bread
  • 2 large eggs
  • 120 ml milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • Pinch of salt
  • Butter for frying
  • Maple syrup for serving
  • Fresh berries for garnish

Steps

  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1 cup of milk, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and a pinch of salt until well combined.

  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat (approximately 175°C or 350°F) and add 1 tablespoon of butter, allowing it to melt and coat the surface.

  3. Dip each slice of brioche into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated but not soaked, to prevent sogginess.

  4. Place the coated brioche slices onto the skillet, cooking for 3-4 minutes on each side, flipping when they reach a golden brown color.

  5. Remove the French toast from the skillet and keep warm in a preheated oven at 93°C (200°F) while you cook the remaining slices.

  6. Serve the French toast warm, drizzled with maple syrup and topped with fresh berries.

Why this works

The combination of egg and milk creates a custard-like mixture that infuses flavor into the bread while ensuring a tender texture. Cooking on medium heat (about 175°C or 350°F) allows for even caramelization without burning, yielding that coveted golden crust. If your French toast breaks, ensure you're not soaking the bread too long; if it becomes too soggy, it will be difficult to flip. A pinch of salt enhances the sweetness of the sugar and balances the flavor profile. This classic dish is versatile; you can add spices like cinnamon or nutmeg for a twist. If your French toast seems too dry, consider adjusting the milk-to-egg ratio for a richer custard, or experiment with different types of bread such as challah or sourdough for variety. The precise cooking time of 3-4 minutes per side ensures that the exterior is crisp while the interior remains soft and custardy, creating a delightful contrast in textures.
