Servings 10
Ingredients
- 10 slices brioche and hearty crusty french bread or sourdough*
- 4 eggs
- 3/4 cup of whole milk
- 1/4 cup of heavy cream
- 1 Tbsp of granulated sugar
- 2 tsp of vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 tsp of ground cinnamon
- Butter for griddle
- Warm maple syrup
Instructions
- Preheat your non-stick electric griddle to 375°F, or use a large non-stick skillet or griddle pan over medium-low heat.
- Whisk the eggs and cinnamon in a large shallow dish. Add the milk, cream, sugar, and vanilla, and whisk until well combined.
- Butter the griddle just before placing the bread on it.
- Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, coating both sides. If you're using brioche, dip quickly; for heartier French bread, let it soak a bit longer.
- Cook the bread on the griddle for about 3 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown. Flip and cook the other side for another 3 minutes until golden brown.
- Serve warm with maple syrup.
