Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 loaf of Brioche
  • 6 eggs
  • 1 cup of whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon of sea salt

Caramel Sauce:

  • 8 tablespoons of unsalted butter
  • 1 cup of dark or light brown sugar
  • 1 cup of heavy cream


Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and sea salt until everything is well mixed.
  2. Slice the brioche into thick 1-inch pieces and arrange them in a 16-inch round skillet or baking dish. It’s totally fine if the bread slices overlap.
  3. Pour the egg mixture over the bread and let it soak overnight in the refrigerator.
  4. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  5. In a small saucepan, combine butter, brown sugar, and heavy cream. Heat the mixture over medium-high heat until it starts to bubble, creating a luscious caramel sauce. Pour this heavenly concoction over the bread.
  6. Bake for 40 minutes or until the bread becomes delightfully crisp, and the egg mixture sets perfectly.
  7. For the finishing touch, dust your creation with powdered sugar or drizzle with maple syrup if you desire. Serve it warm and savor every delicious bite!
