Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup heavy cream
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons granulated white sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 6 sliced brioche bread
  • butter for cooking
  • toppings of your choice to serve

Instructions

  • In a large shallow bowl, combine the cream, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract and cinnamon. Whisk to combine and set aside.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add butter to the skillet. While the skillet is heating up, dip the brioche bread in the batter. Place the slices in the bowl and soak each side for just about 5 seconds and then flip to coat the other side.
  • Add the soaked bread to the hot skillet and cook for about 2 - 3 minutes until golden and a little crisp. Then flip and cook the other side for 2 - 3 minutes. Remove from the skillet and place on a baking tray or plate to keep warm while you cook the rest.
  • Serve hot with butter and maple syrup.
