If you don\u2019t have a brioche handy any bread will work. Try it with Wonder Bread, a stale baguette, or go for extra oomph and make with challah or panettone with candied peel. Any way you fry it, this recipe can\u2019t be beat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"823\" height=\"430\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.davidstea.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/facebookdv765x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11855\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.davidstea.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/facebookdv765x400.jpg 823w, https:\/\/blog.davidstea.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/facebookdv765x400-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.davidstea.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/facebookdv765x400-768x401.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 823px) 100vw, 823px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"recipe-block-svg\">\n    <div class=\"recipe-ct\">\n        <div class=\"gmc-recipe\" id=\"gmc-print-11833\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Recipe\" style=\"\">\n        <meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"https:\/\/blog.davidstea.com\" \/>\n    <h2 class=\"gmc-recipe-title \" itemprop=\"name\">French Toast<\/h2><div class=\"gmc-print-area\">\n        \n            \n                              \n                              \n                              \n                              \n                              \n                              \n                              \n                                          \n<a class=\"gmc-print-options gmc-print-hidden\" href=\"#\" id=\"gmc-print-text-11833\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.davidstea.com\/en\/wp-content\/plugins\/getmecooking-recipe-templatex\/images\/print.png\" \/>Print recipe<\/a>          <\/div><div class=\"gmc-clear-both\">\n  <\/div><div class=\"gmc-recipe-main-photo\">\n<a class=\"\" href=\"\" rel=\"\">\n          <\/a>  <\/div>        <table class=\"gmc-recipe-summary-narrow no-main-photo\">\n                                                                                                                          <\/table>                \n    <div class=\"gmc-recipe-ingredients\"><h2 class=\"gmc-recipe-subtitle\">Ingredients<\/h2>            \n<ul class=\"gmc-ingredient-list\">\n                    \n                                    \n<li class=\"gmc-ingredient-list-item\" itemprop=\"ingredients\">10 slices of brioche, sliced thick<\/li>                                  \n                                    \n<li class=\"gmc-ingredient-list-item\" itemprop=\"ingredients\">2 cups of your choice of milk (we used unsweetened oat milk)<\/li>                                  \n                                    \n<li class=\"gmc-ingredient-list-item\" itemprop=\"ingredients\">3 eggs, beaten<\/li>                                  \n                                    \n<li class=\"gmc-ingredient-list-item\" itemprop=\"ingredients\">1 tbsp pure vanilla extract<\/li>                                  \n                                    \n<li class=\"gmc-ingredient-list-item\" itemprop=\"ingredients\">2 Perfect Spoons of Organic Earl Grey tea<\/li>                                  \n                                    \n<li class=\"gmc-ingredient-list-item\" itemprop=\"ingredients\">\u00bd tsp ground cinnamon<\/li>                                  \n                                    \n<li class=\"gmc-ingredient-list-item\" itemprop=\"ingredients\">4 tbsp unsalted butter<\/li>                                  \n                                    \n<li class=\"gmc-ingredient-list-item\" itemprop=\"ingredients\">1 tbsp honey<\/li>                                  \n                                    \n<li class=\"gmc-ingredient-list-item\" itemprop=\"ingredients\">1 cup maple syrup, to serve<\/li>                                  \n                                    \n<li class=\"gmc-ingredient-list-item\" itemprop=\"ingredients\">2 cups panko breadcrumbs<\/li>                                          <\/ul>                          <\/div>      \n        <div class=\"gmc-recipe-steps\">\n<h2 class=\"gmc-recipe-subtitle\">\n        Directions\n      <\/h2>            \n        <table class=\"gmc-step-list\">\n                    \n                                                            <tr>\n<td class=\"gmc-step-list-title\" colspan=\"2\">\n                Step 1\n              <\/td>            <\/tr><tr class=\"gmc-step-list-item\">\n                                                        \n                                <td class=\"gmc-step-desc\" itemprop=\"recipeInstructions\">Pour milk into saucepan and add 2 Perfect Spoons of Organic Earl Grey tea.
