Recipe View 15 mins Melt 1 1/2 teaspoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Dip each slice of brioche bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated. Working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, cook the soaked brioche slices in the hot butter until golden brown on both sides, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Add more butter to the skillet as needed. Transfer the cooked French toast slices to a baking sheet. (15 minutes)

Recipe View 5 mins While the French toast is baking, prepare the browned butter. In the same skillet, melt 1/4 cup of butter over medium-low heat. Continue to cook, swirling the pan occasionally, until the butter is a deep golden brown and has a nutty aroma, about 3 to 5 minutes. Immediately transfer the browned butter to a heatproof bowl to prevent it from burning. (5 minutes)

Recipe View Drizzle the browned butter evenly over the baked French toast slices. Top each slice with 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, or more to taste. Serve immediately and enjoy!

For best results, use day-old brioche bread. This will help prevent the French toast from becoming soggy.
Don't overcrowd the skillet when frying the French toast; work in batches to ensure even browning.
Watch the browned butter carefully, as it can burn quickly. The key is to swirl the pan frequently and remove it from the heat as soon as it reaches the desired color and aroma.
Feel free to customize the toppings with fresh berries, whipped cream, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
