Ingredients

• 8 slices of thick brioche bread
• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup of milk
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
• Pinch of salt
• 2 tablespoons of butter
• 1 cup of fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
• 1 ripe banana, sliced
• 1/4 cup of chopped nuts (optional)
• Powdered sugar, for dusting
• Maple syrup, for serving

Directions

1. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt.
2. Place a slice of brioche bread on a clean surface and place a generous amount of mixed berries on top. Add a few slices of banana and sprinkle with chopped nuts, if desired. Top with another slice of brioche bread to create a sandwich.
3. Dip the sandwich in the egg mixture, allowing the bread to soak up the mixture on both sides.
4. In a large non-stick skillet or griddle, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Place the dipped sandwich in the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining sandwiches, adding more butter as needed.
5. Remove the cooked sandwiches from the skillet and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve hot with a drizzle of maple syrup.
6. Enjoy your delicious fruity french toast sandwiches!
