Brioche French Toast:
- 6 slices thick-cut brioche or challah bread
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- pinch of salt
- 2 tablespoons butter (for cooking)

Instructions
- Custard Preparation: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, whole milk, heavy cream, sugars, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
- Cooking French Toast: Heat a skillet over medium heat, coat with butter. Dip bread slices in custard mixture, soak, then cook each side for 2–3 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Repeat with remaining slices.
