1 1/2 cups milk
4 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
A pinch of salt
1 tablespoon butter for pan-frying the bread (add more if needed)
6 slices of dry brioche bread, sliced an inch thick
1/4 cup butter
6 tablespoons maple syrup (add more if preferred)

Steps:

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
In a bowl, whisk milk, eggs, vanilla extract, sugar, nutmeg, and salt.
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add 1 ½ teaspoons of butter and wait until hot and melted.
While waiting, dip the brioche slices in the custard mixture.
Place the bread into the skillet and cook each side for 2 to 3 minutes or until golden. You may add more butter if needed.
Transfer the cooked toast onto a baking sheet.
Bake the toast for 8 to 10 minutes.
While waiting, add ¼ cup of butter in a skillet over medium-low heat. Stir for 3 to 5 minutes or until it browns.
Pour the browned butter all over the baked toast and top with maple syrup.
