Ingredients

1 loaf brioche bread from Trader Joes
3/4 cup milk cold
4 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
6 tablespoons butter
powdered sugar optional
maple syrup optional

Instructions

Remove thick slices brioche bread from bag. Set aside.
In a large, shallow dish, whisk milk, eggs, cinnamon, and vanilla extract together until well combined.
Preheat large, nonstick skillet over medium low to medium heat. Melt 1 tablespoon butter onto pan.
Soak two slices of brioche bread in egg and milk mixture, 3 seconds per side, and transfer directly to hot pan.
Fry each side 30 seconds to 1 minute or until evenly golden in color. Remove from pan to a baking sheet. Keep cooked brioche french toast pieces warm in a 200° F oven.
Continue this method until all slices of brioche bread have been fried, adding more butter as needed.
Serve warm with powdered sugar, strawberries, whipped cream, maple syrup, or any other desired toppings.
