There's no question that this is the best French toast recipe. The caramelized exterior meets a soft, custardlike center that practically melts in your mouth. Not only that, but it's quick and easy, too! —Audrey Rompon, Milwaukee, Wisconsin
Optional toppings: Butter, maple syrup, fresh berries, whipped cream and confectioners' sugar
Directions
In a shallow dish, whisk together the first 7 ingredients. Preheat a greased griddle over medium heat.
Dip bread in egg mixture, letting it soak 5 seconds on each side. Cook on griddle until golden brown on both sides. Serve with toppings as desired.
Using day-old bread from a bakery helps the French toast to be more stable. If using commercially produced brioche, be sure to allow bread to become slightly stale for best results.

This was amazing. The texture on the brioche was perfect, crispy outside, fluffy and light inside. The batter was great and so rich. Lived up to the name Best ever.

The Brioche at our store came pre-sliced, so not quite as thick as recipe called for, but it was not an issue. Completely different than my normal batter, but this may just be the best I’ve ever had. Crispy on the outside, rich flavor and pillowy inside! Absolutely delightful, a definite keeper!
