Ingredients:
For the French Toast:
- 8 slices thick-cut bread (challah or brioche recommended)
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ½ cup whole milk
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tbsp butter (for greasing)
For the Caramelized Topping:
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
Instructions:
1. Prep the Bread
Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter.
Arrange the bread slices in a single layer inside the dish.
2. Make the Custard
In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until smooth.
3. Soak the Bread
Pour the custard mixture evenly over the bread, making sure every slice is soaked.
Cover and refrigerate overnight (or at least 2 hours) for the best flavor and texture.
4. Bake to Perfection
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bake for 35-40 minutes until golden brown, puffed, and slightly crisp around the edges.
5. Caramelize the Sugar Topping
Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over the top. Broil for 2-3 minutes until the sugar melts and caramelizes, forming a crispy, brûlée-like crust.
6. Serve & Enjoy!
Serve warm with maple syrup, fresh berries, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
