Step-by-Step Instructions

Prepare the Egg Mixture

In a medium bowl, crack 2 eggs and beat them well until smooth. Add sugar, milk, vanilla essence, and a pinch of cinnamon powder. Whisk everything together until fully combined.
The mixture should be slightly creamy and well blended. This is what gives your French toast that rich, flavorful taste.


Heat the Pan

Place a frying pan on medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon butter and 1 teaspoon oil.
The oil prevents the butter from burning, while the butter adds rich flavor. Let it melt completely before adding the bread.


Dip the Brioche Bread

Take sliced brioche bread and dip each slice into the egg mixture.
Make sure both sides are coated, but don’t soak too long. A quick dip (2–3 seconds per side) is perfect to prevent soggy toast.


Fry Until Golden Brown

Place the coated bread slices onto the hot pan.
Cook for about 2–3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and slightly crispy. Flip carefully using a spatula.
Adjust heat if needed to avoid burning.

Serve hot with maple syrup or honey. You can also top with:
