Ingredients
6 thick slices Challah or Brioche bread
1 sachet English breakfast or Earl Grey tea
3/4 Cup Milk
-
1/2 tsp Cardamom
-
1/2 tsp Cinnamon
-
1/2 tsp Ginger
4 Large Eggs
1 tsp Vanilla
-
1/4 tsp Nutmeg
1/4 Cup Butter, unsalted, divided
Maple syrup, to serve
Directions
Steps
In a small sauce pot, heat milk until just about to boil. (Do not boil) Turn off heat. Add in tea and steep for 45 minutes to an hour. Remove tea bag and allow to cool completely.
In a small bowl mix milk steeped with tea, eggs, cardamom, ginger, nutmeg, vanilla, and cinnamon.
Melt 1 - 2 Tbsp of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Once melted, dip 2 - 3 bread slices in custard mixture. Make sure to coat each side. Cook bread 2 - 3 minutes until brown on one side and then turn over and brown on the other side an additional minute. Do not crowd the bread into the pan.
Continue to cook in batches until all bread has been cooked. Serve warm with maple syrup. Enjoy!
