Ingredients
Scale
- 1 loaf of Brioche bread (sliced into 1-inch thick pieces)
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk (or heavy cream for extra richness)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Generously grease a large rimmed baking sheet with butter or non-stick cooking spray. If you want extra crispiness, you can place the baking sheet in the oven for a few minutes to get it hot while you prepare the custard. Slice your brioche loaf into thick, even slices if it is not pre-sliced.
- In a wide, shallow bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together until completely combined and no streaks of egg remain. Working with one slice at a time, dip the brioche into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for about 10 seconds per side. You want the bread to be saturated but not so soggy that it breaks apart. Arrange the soaked slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Place the sheet pan in the center rack of the oven. Bake for 10 minutes, then carefully flip each slice using a spatula. Bake for another 8 to 10 minutes, or until the French toast is golden brown and slightly puffed. Remove from the oven and serve immediately with your favorite toppings like maple syrup, fresh berries, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
