Ingredients
- 5 large eggs room temperature
- 1½ cups buttermilk
- 1 Tbsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 Tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp ground cardamom
- 2 Tbsp granulated sugar
- pinch salt
- 12 slices brioche challah bread or Texas toast bread, sliced ¾” thick
- vegetable or canola oil for grilling
- powdered sugar for serving
- pure maple syrup for serving
Instructions
- Preheat grill to medium heat (~350°F).
- Using a large bowl, add eggs, buttermilk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, cardamom, sugar and salt; whisk together until well combined.
- Place bread slices in a shallow baking dish. (Note: A rimmed baking tray works great here!)
- Pour egg mixture on top and let sit for 2 minutes. Flip bread over and let sit for 1-2 more minutes.
- Brush grill grates with vegetable oil (to prevent bread from sticking).
- Remove bread from egg mixture, letting excess mixture drip off. Place bread on grill; grill for 4-6 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Remove French toast from grill and dust with powdered sugar.
- Serve immediately with maple syrup.
Notes
If possible, use day-old bread - the slightly stale bread is great for making French Toast!
