Ingredients

  • Softened butter plus more for serving
  • 4 large eggs
  • ¼ cup half and half
  • 2 tablespoon Brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • pinch of salt
  • 8 thick slices brioche (see notes)
  • Maple syrup, berries, or powdered sugar for topping

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Line a half sheet pan with parchment paper. Lightly brush the parchment paper with melted butter. Set aside.
  • Whisk the eggs, half and half, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, and salt in a shallow pie dish or pan.
  • Dip each piece of brioche in the egg mixture. Turn. Remove the slice shaking off any excess custard. Place on the parchment. Repeat - placing the slices about an inch apart until all slices are coated and placed on the pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven 15 minutes. Flip and cook another 5 minutes or until the center is set. Serve warm topped with butter, maple syrup, and fruit as desired.

Notes

Yes. You can skip buttering the parchment. I like using butter for a more caramelized finish and to more closely mimic skillet cooking.
