The rich, buttery flavor of brandy pairs perfectly with the sweet, fluffy texture of french toast, making for a mouth-watering combination.

Brandy French Toast Recipe

Children get a kick out of soaking the bread in the egg mixture and dusting powdered sugar over the finished product, so if you’re planning on having a little helper in the kitchen, this might be the dish for you. In this case, beware of the brandy! The alcohol burns off during the cooking process but still flavors the bread.

Ingredients:

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 ½ cups half and half cream
  • 2 tbsp brandy
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ¼ tsp cinnamon
  • 8 slices of bread
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • Maple syrup to serve

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350˚F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Beat eggs in a medium bowl.

Add half and half, brandy, vanilla, and cinnamon. Mix well.

Dip bread into bowl and place in an even layer onto a baking sheet. Pour remaining mixture on top of bread. Soak 3 minutes, then flip bread and soak another three minutes.

Melt 1 tablespoon of butter into a large nonstick sauté pan. When foam has subsided, place 4 slices of bread into pan. Sauté until both sides are a light golden brown, about 1–2 minutes per side.

Repeat process with remaining butter and bread.

Place bread onto preheated baking sheet and bake until cooked through, about 6–7 minutes.

Top with additional unsalted butter, if desired, and serve with maple syrup.

Pairs well with:

Serve this brandy french toast alongside other brunch items – omelets or scrambled eggs, fresh fruit or if you’re feeling a little more indulgent, bacon, breakfast sausage or ham.
