Brioche French Toast | Deliciously Decadent 

Let’s make a delicious, decadent brioche French toast recipe.

Brioche-French-Toast

You can always make this recipe with a stand mixer or whisk by hand, but today we’re going to be using a really fun device. It’s the KitchenAid Hand Blender and Accessories Kit, and I’ll be using the whisk attachment. I recently did a review of the entire KitchenAid hand blender and accessories kit, which you can view here: KitchenAid Hand Blender & Accessories Kit Review.

Brioche French Toast | Recipe

First, we’ll use our blender pitcher, which comes with this kit. We’re going to add in five eggs, one cup of whole milk. One tbsp of cane sugar. One teaspoon of vanilla extract and a half a teaspoon of cinnamon.

Now, put the splash guard portion of the lid in place. Now, put the whisk accessory in the bottom of the pitcher and then press the variable speed controller. Start at a low speed, gradually increasing to half power. You want to do this until it’s fully blended together. This should take less than a minute.

And now, pour your egg mixture into a shallow wide bowl and a loaf of brioche bread ready to go. If you don’t have it pre-sliced, you should slice your bread at this time into about 15 pieces if possible.

Now, you can sometimes find brioche bread in your supermarkets bakery or a local bakery if you’re lucky enough to have one near you, but here is a wonderful option for pre-sliced Brioche Bread: St Pierre Brioche Loaf.

You’re going to do just like you do with any other French toast. You dip it in, you turn it over, and then you put it on a large plate in stacks. They’re just going to stay in for about 3 seconds maximum on each side. You just want them to take the mixture, but not to be too soggy. We’re just going to do all of them at once, and then we’ll go over to cook them. For this recipe, I ended up using 15 slices of bread.

Brioche French Toast | How to Cook

Next, let’s cook our bio French toast using a special method. In a large pan on your stove top, add a pat of butter (about 1 tbsp or less) and some avocado oil spray. Turn the burner on to medium. Allow the butter to melt and coat the pan. You don’t have to use butter, but it takes the taste over the top. You’re going to want to put in as many pieces as will fit without overcrowding. My pan accommodates three slices of brioche French toast at a time.

Now, let it cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Then, flip each brioche slice and allow to cook for another 3 to four minutes. Repeat this process for the remaining pieces. Make sure you butter and spray the pan again in between each batch.

Let’s put on some homemade whipped cream that I also also made with this whisk accessory. The whipped cream recipe is available right here: Homemade Whipped Cream Recipe.

And this wouldn’t be complete without some maple syrup.

Brioche French Toast | How Does It Taste?

Okay, this looks so beyond amazing. But how does it taste? This is so amazing. This might be the best thing I’ve ever had in my life. And honestly, I know this there’s a lot of sweetness in this recipe, but it’s not too sweet. It’s perfect.

Cooking it in the butter brings out a richness that is unbelievable. The 100% pure maple syrup is actually really light. It’s not too heavy. And then the whipped cream is just the chef’s kiss. It’s so good. It’s nice and light. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do!

Notes

NOTE: The nutrition facts listed here do not include any optional toppings (maple syrup, whipped cream cream, or berries).
You can make these and re-heat on stovetop. They should last up to 3 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They also freeze well with parchment paper in between each slice and can be reheated in an air fryer, toaster oven, or stovetop. Because of the butter and oils, reheating in an upright traditional toaster is not recommended.
