Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 slices thick-cut brioche or challah bread
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup full-fat cottage cheese
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of fine sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, plus more for serving
  • Maple syrup, fresh berries, and a pat of butter for serving

Method
 

  1. Blend the cottage cheese, eggs, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt on high for 20 to 30 seconds until smooth.
  2. Pour the custard into a shallow dish. Soak each bread slice for 30 seconds per side.
  3. Melt the butter in a nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Cook the soaked bread for 2 to 3 minutes per side until deeply golden.
  4. Stack the French toast on a plate and serve warm with butter, maple syrup, and berries.

Notes

If your bread is very fresh, you can dry it out by placing the slices in a 300°F oven for 5 minutes before soaking.
