Time 2h50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

6 large eggs
2 cups whole milk
⅓ cup heavy cream
¼ cup dark brown sugar, lightly packed
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for greasing
12 slices brioche bread, day old, 3/4 in (2 cm)
¾ cup maple syrup
¾ cup all purpose flour
¼ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup dark brown sugar, lightly packed
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed and chilled
1 cup walnuts, crushed

Steps:

  • Make the French toast: In a medium bowl, beat the eggs. Add the milk, cream, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt and whisk to combine.
  • Grease a 9 x 13-inch (22 x 33 cm) ceramic or glass baking dish with butter.
  • Working in batches, dip the brioche into the custard to coat both sides. Arrange the brioche in the prepared baking dish, overlapping slightly. Pour the remaining custard over the top. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, up to overnight.
  • Meanwhile, make the walnut streusel: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with a nonstick mat.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, granulated and brown sugars, salt, and cinnamon. Work the butter into the dry ingredients with a fork until crumbly. Add the chopped walnuts and mix well.

Tips for Making the Best French Toast for One:

  • Use fresh, thick-sliced bread: This will help the French toast hold up better and be less likely to fall apart.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Cook the French toast in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan and making the toast soggy.
  • Use clarified butter or cooking spray: This will help prevent the French toast from sticking to the pan.
  • Cook the French toast over medium heat: This will help it cook evenly without burning.
  • Flip the French toast only once: This will help prevent it from breaking.
  • Serve the French toast immediately: This is when it is at its best.
