Description

Elevate your breakfast experience with the Best Crème Brûlée French Toast Recipe, a deliciously decadent twist on the classic dish, featuring rich custard, golden caramelized sugar, and the perfect crunch.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 8 thick slices of brioche bread
  • More granulated sugar for topping
  • Fresh berries for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until smooth.
  2. Carefully dip each slice of brioche bread into the custard mixture, coating both sides and allowing to soak for a few seconds.
  3. Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat, add butter, and cook the soaked brioche slices for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
  4. Place cooked French toast on a baking sheet, sprinkle with granulated sugar, and use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until bubbly and golden brown.

Notes

  • Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • For best texture, reheat in a frying pan or oven, not the microwave.
  • Enhance your serving with fresh berries, whipped cream, or maple syrup.
