Instructions
Ingredients:
1 loaf of Brioche Bread (sliced into 8-10 slices)
3-4 tbs Unsalted Butter
1 tsp Cinnamon
¼ cup sugar
2 eggs
1 extra yolk
2 tsp Vanilla bean paste
2 cups heavy cream
¼ tsp of salt
Ingredients for coating
½ cup sugar for final dipping mixture
1 ½ tbs of cinnamon or final dipping mixture
1 16 oz bottle of maple syrup
Method:
Cut each slice of bread into 3 even pieces and set aside.
Using a medium-sized bowl, whisk together eggs, extra yolk, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla bean paste, heavy cream, and a pinch of salt until smooth.
In a separate shallow bowl or plate, pour 1 cup of sugar and 1 tbs of cinnamon, then mix with a fork to ensure it is evenly blended.
Place a grill pan or skillet over medium heat and coat with 1 tbs of butter. Add more butter for each batch that you cook.
Dip each piece of bread into the batter, making sure it’s all coated. Let the excess drip off, then dip it into the sugar-cinnamon mixture.
Place each piece of bread on a skillet or grill pan and cook on each side for 1-2 minutes, until golden brown. Plate and serve with bacon or sausage and drizzle with maple syrup.
