Ingredients
- 4 slices thick cut brioche bread (about 1” thick) or any white bread
- 2 XL eggs
- 1/2 cup half and half
- 2 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- pinch of salt
- 1 cup crushed cornflakes (or any other type of flake cereal)
- 1–2 tablespoon butter
Instructions
- In a bowl whisk together the eggs and half and half until frothy.
- Add in the brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla and salt.
- Whisk until combined.
- Pour into a shallow dish.
- In another shallow dish, add in the crushed cornflakes
- Cut your bread into 1”-wide strips.
- Heat a grill pan over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter.
- Dip the bread stick into the egg mixture and cover all sides. Do not let it rest in there as you don’t want it to become soggy.
- Place the egg-covered stick in the cornflakes and press down, gently rolling to cover all sides.
- Add to the pan and repeat with the remaining sticks, or however many your pan can hold (don’t over crowd).
- Cook for about 3-4 minutes and flip (I used tongs actually as that seemed easiest). The bottom should be golden brown.
- Continue cooking for another 3-4 minutes.
- Remove from the pan and plate.
- Top with syrup or your favorite topping.
