Description
A delightful stack of golden toast layered with creamy custard and fresh strawberries, perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dessert.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 slices golden brioche bread (or your favorite bread)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons sugar (more if you like it sweeter)
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- Whipped cream (optional) for topping
Instructions
- Whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and sugar until well combined.
- Dip the slices of brioche bread into the egg mixture, letting them soak just a little.
- Cook the soaked brioche slices in a skillet over medium heat until both sides are golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Prepare the custard by mixing together milk, eggs, and sugar in a separate saucepan, cooking on low heat until thickened.
- Stack one slice of brioche down, spread a layer of custard, and top with fresh strawberries. Repeat the process until stacked.
- Serve warm with whipped cream, if desired.
Notes
Let the custard cool slightly before pouring onto the bread. Use day-old brioche for better texture. Avoid overcooking the bread.
