Description

A delicious breakfast of cheddar brioche french toast topped with fried eggs and a sprinkle of paprika.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup milk
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar (divided)
  • 8 thick slices brioche bread
  • 2 tablespoons butter (divided)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 4 large eggs

Instructions

  1. Whisk together milk, eggs, garlic powder, and 1/2 cup shredded cheese.
  2. Dunk each slice of bread into the milk mixture, making sure to coat both sides with cheese.
  3. Heat griddle or nonstick pan over medium-low heat. Add 1 tablespoon butter and swirl around the pan to coat the bottom.
